Feeding blood junkie habits of the elephant man Quench his thirst with Black Water rising Executive outcomes on a burning horizon Yeah motherfucker, let's take a ride We're rolling route Irish, someone has got to die Trick or treat, it's IEDs So roll the dice as we leave cause it's near 8 miles of pure luck with more bang for Sam's buck Guaran-fucking-teed, someone will bleed Privatize to conceal all the lies big business is booming like it's the 4th of July No need for all the formalities Jump the kangaroo courts and plant the lynching trees Yeah motherfucker, let's take a ride Running red lights in a green zone, someone has got to die Hidden Aegis, nothing here to see So load the dice for me please and Let's snort the bottom line Crude cashed into refined Guaran-fucking-teed, Just sign the deed Someone will bleed Someone has got to die Ours is not to reason why Ours is but to do if the pay rate's right Black liquid assets fuck the mujahideen Paint their picket fences red with the American dream Lay the hammer hammer down, get the job done right Jacked up and clocked in into a fire fight Covert reactions and you never saw me A glass parking lot in the American dream they all die Oh, fucking murder!

Review about Contractor To clraify. | Reviewer: Nobody | 12/1/09 Lamb of God is not picking on you, beenbothsides. You're a bodyguard. There are no references to bodyguards in this song. As a fan who devotes great time and thought to LoG's work, I believe they are talking about people who do more dubious things than you or downright wrong things. Quit taking it personally, big guy. If someone made a song called "Walmart Cashier" and talked about all the bad things Walmart cashiers have done, I wouldn't take it personally. Why? Because I'd know I'm not that guy. You dig? I think you're a badass, beenbothsides, but I also think Lamb of God are badasses. You're both doing what you need to do. Since you mentioned that PMC's aren't the only ones who have done bad, Lamb of God made a nod at the bad things the national military have done too, with the somber opening and closing of Ashes of The Wake (instrumental). They also dedicated a song to the troops at one of their live shows, with a title aimed directly at the hearts of radical, fundamental fighters in the Middle East. It was "Now You've Got Something To Die For". You don't know LoG, beenbothsides. They don't hate you, I'm sure. And they're the source of the most brilliant, new, lyrically stylish metal post-2k America can ever hope to enjoy. Relax and enjoy the music. And I know PMC's have done plenty of good in the world, too. Like helping African governments deal with rebels. LoG are not idiots. They just care enough to have opinions, and are talented enough to convey it in a way people might actually want to hear. Shrug this one song off. You've shrugged off harsher remarks, I'm sure. LAMB OF GOD! | Reviewer: Adam | 12/2/09 Everybody against this song or this band is a fool. I dont care who you are this without a doubt one of the greatest songs of all time just for the lyrics and the way the world is at this current time. If you refuse to accept it, then put your blinders back on and get bit by the world so hard you won't know what hit you. Gratz on being fail at life if you dislike this song :-D Real metal, controversial subject matter. | Reviewer: Nobody | 11/25/09 Kudos to Beenbothsides, and mr. fuck is a moron. Being in the military does not exempt you from moron status. Believe me, family I've had in the military have told me all about it. There are moron civilians, and moron soldiers. This is Lamb of God's opinion about killing for money, and it's told very stylishly. If you have a problem, too bad, so sad. It's an awesome song (using the word "awesome" to its dictionary definition, there) from a completely AWESOME album. That metal this good even comes from the modern metal scene is absolutely unbelievable. This comes from someone raised on Pantera, Megadeth, Metallica, Black Sabbath, you know, true metal. Speed and screaming have replaced style in current circles, but Lamb of God refuses to submit. Hey mr. fuck, if you didn't gather from two freaking albums ago, Lamb of God is anti-war. And they say so oh so fucking brilliantly. I'm probably designing my personally-built chopper after them. Don't hate them for their opinions, just enjoy the music. I dare you to find a newer metal band half as innovative and ingenius as LoG, anyway. And on the subject of contractors, how about Blackwater? Are they as innocent as you individual soldiers? PMC's have less oversight and armed men sometimes do bad things overseas, regardless. If I knew one of the 17 civilians that Blackwater employees shot, I'd probably write this song too. If I was nearly talented enough (I'm not). Whatever. Wrath kicks fucking ass. Deal with it. lol at Beenbothsides | Reviewer: Johnnyquest | 10/11/09 Mr. Ex military-turned bodyguard, keep up the good work, hahahahaha. My brother is in the military and just returned from Iraq... So as I don't fully agree with everything, I still support you all, Thumbs up. I do agree with you as well with buddy flipping out over nothing? And for that guy, just because you're aloud a opinion doesn't mean you should voice it, was this 265lbs "Stormtrooper" standing in front of you, you'd keep your stupid fucking mouth shut, hahaha. Props for a well articulated argument Beenbothsides, not that it was hard for you to put together though. But on another note, I like this song, unreal training music when I do P/T in the mornings, hitting up the gym, or doing some MMA. Once the song hit's, " Ours is not the reason why..." I feel so jacked up, hahaha, Props to LOB for putting out another kick-ass song god bless the actual opinions | Reviewer: Beenbothsides | 9/24/09 You,know about an hour after I first heard that song I wrote my blog which I've never done before just stating my views in a non hostile way,very intentionally by the way and forgot about it. Checking in today It was like 5,4,3,2,1 "hey fuck you man who are you to have an opinion man,fuck you,wait a minuite,I forgot what I was gonna say,uh I better say something so I sound tough,FUCK YOU MAN!" Bro I'm still in Baghdad and have been laughing my ass off for that one.I'm a former Marine scout sniper and a Bodygaurd in Iraq so, uh,ya let's just say it's safe to assume I'm a republican.Still I can sit down and absolutely converse with the most liberal of people,I love hearing other peoples perspectives but why is it that for every person who would like to convey his viewpoint,there's 50 people who want to act like little kids and say "fuck you"to everything?hey annoymous9/13 where do I ever say you don't have the right to an opinion?Go ahead and point that one out anyone.The anwser to your question of why I do what I do ,all 3 and a hundred more brother. Thats the whole point Im trying to convey,I never say this is something you wouldn't understand because clearly you don't but there are some people out there that who would love to hear the publics opinion on former military serving as bodygaurds as well as from poeple WHO-ARE-ACTUALLY-FORMER- MILITARY-SERVING-AS-BODYGAURDS!If someone wrote a song trashing you that in your opinion was clearly inacurate you would do the same.Im not here for your approval,I've had countless Iraqi soldiers and familys thank me for what I've done.Stop getting emotional,I'm a 265 pound x-marine living the past 4 years in Iraq,your threats are not exactly scary to me,although Im sure you'll write back that you would just come up and bruce lee my ass.And to all you guys who guys out there who love metal,democrat and republican who can have open topics without sounding like scared little kids ,I give respect. And as I tried to make this as open minded as possible Im sure Ill be told togo fuckmyself in about a week.Anyone with a real veiwpoint? hey beenbothsides | Reviewer: Anonymous | 9/13/09 Just because someone has not served doesn't exclude him/her from voicing their opinion. There are 300 million people in the US,..do you think ALL have served? Do you think that excludes us from voicing opinions on what OUR government does? If so, you are just a Mercenary. I PAY YOU....I HAVE A RIGHT TO SAY IF I DON'T LIKE WHAT YOU ARE DOING!! This song is OBVIOUSLY a protest against the privatizing of Military Operations. Touting ourselves as the foremost superpower in the world, and then subbing out the most sensitive operations is pretty gay, if you ask me. Believe it or not, you do what you do either because :a) you like it, b)you're good at it, or c) the "pay rate's right"...or maybe all 3... I'm a red-blooded, tax-paying American, who is too old to join the military, but would in a heartbeat today, who has every right to say what his government does. FUCK YOU for saying I don't have a right to say because I have never served a day in my life! A fe things to think about from someone who knows. | Reviewer: Beenbothsides | 9/9/09 I was a marine scout sniper in the invasion and have been a contractor for over 3 years. I think this song is well meaning but obviously left wing biased. "privatize to conceal all the lies" wow guys you sure showed us! You've never served a day in youre life but if CNN clearly proves that no matter if you're a veteran from a special operations unit with a flawless record as soon as you join a Security firm you immediately transform into an evil stormtrooper from planet x! some say "hey contractors make way more than soilders!"ya no shit so do garbagemen and bartenders. Have contractors done some dumb shit in the past? For the love of god yes! Are you sure you want to compare that with the amount of stupid shit the military's done? Does that change the fact that their out there everyday risking their life's defending other people? I've had friends killed on both sides , so for me it's not just a cheap talking point ,it's real. On either of side of the argument I thank people that are smart enough not to label American veterans acting in a support capacity and not offensive operations as A Mercinary and to those who actually read the facts not just "oh those guys just go around and shoot everybody, I can't give any specific proof or situations but they just do!" purely amazing | Reviewer: Anonymous | 8/31/09 log, just has that pure heavy metal sound, i love how they start with a lot of energy an power, then in the middle, it gets calm, an u think its over, untill you hear that ausoume bass,an they just blow your mind, defently one of they're best and energetic work wow! | Reviewer: cica | 8/27/09 great energy in this great song! somehow i find lamb of god songs related to (american)war topics very interesting regardless of my opinions on such themes...i can't help but think blythe can better express his thoughts on this matter through songs/lyrics than through some speech:)))... Awesome song, and MrFuck is an idiot | Reviewer: adam | 7/8/09 Mr.fuck. you fuck head,you dont need to come on to a public website where people ome to check out songs and rant about your pathetic life. do you seriously think people care about your history, don't answer that, because you obviously do otherwise you wouldnt have posted " o I was in the war" shit. No one cares. alot of people were in the war, ut at least most of them were hoorale eough to to try to stick it in evveryones faces. you fucking jackass. go back to iraq Review By Pages: 1 2 Review the song Contractor The area is only for review, if you want to submit the lyrics or the corrections of the lyrics, please click the link at the end of the lyrics.
