Petals In The Grass
Purple Heart
A POW
In my youth
Both my caretakers were
My John Wilkes Booth
In the wars of good and evil
Evil usually won
No matter how I tried
I was still their son
I had no uniform
I had no rank
Thrown on the frontlines
After the Dr. did spank
Not Airforce, Army, Navy
Or Corps
But I was just another
Causality of war
Injured in my battle
Wounded from the start
Where in the hell is
My purple heart?
In my youth
Both my caretakers were
My John Wilkes Booth
In the wars of good and evil
Evil usually won
No matter how I tried
I was still their son
I had no uniform
I had no rank
Thrown on the frontlines
After the Dr. did spank
Not Airforce, Army, Navy
Or Corps
But I was just another
Causality of war
Injured in my battle
Wounded from the start
Where in the hell is
My purple heart?
