Sergeant William Marshall
You know, you let us all go off to war and said, "Yea, team," you know, "fight in Vietnam," and all this kind of shit, in 1965 through 1968. Now 1968 comes along, and it's "Boo, team, come on home," and all this shit, you know, "and don't say nothing about it, because we don't wanna hear about it, because it's upsetting around dinner time, you know." Well, goddamn, it upset me for a whole goddamned year; it upset a lot of people to the point where they're fucking dead, you know, and all this shit. Now you don't wanna hear about it, well I'll tell you about it everyday, make you sit down and puke in your dinner, you dig, because you got me over there, and now you done brought me back here, and you wanna forget it, so somebody else can go do it somewhere else? Hell no, nuh-huh, you're gonna hear it all, everyday, as long as you live, because, hey, it's gonna be with me as long as I live, when I get up in the morning, when John gets up in the morning, when a lot of dudes that's sitting around here, their gut hurts cause they got shot there. I gotta put on an arm and a leg because it ain't there no more, you dig. And my man here has got a hole in his stomach, he can't work right, you know. Now you do something about that, make that all disappear, you dig, you know, make it all go away with the six o'clock news, turn it off, you know or switch it to another channel and all that shit. The hell with that, you dig, it's here, it's for real, and it's gonna happen again unless these folks just get up off their ass and realize that it has happened.
