[Verse 1]

Propaganda death ensemble

Burial to be

Corpses rotting through the night

In blood-laced misery

Scorched earth, the policy

The reason for the siege

The pendulum, it shaves the blade

The strafing air blood raid


[Verse 2]

Infiltration push reserves

Encircle the front lines

Supreme art of strategy

Playing on the minds

Bombard till submission

Take all to their graves

Indication of triumph:

The numbers that are dead


[Chorus]

Sport the war!

War support!

The sport is war, total war

When victory's really massacre

The final swing is not a drill

It's how many people I can kill


[Guitar Solo: Jeff Hanneman]


[Chorus]

Sport the war!

War support!

The sport is war, total war

When victory's really survival

The final swing is not a drill

It's how many people I can kill


[Bridge 1]

Be dead, fiend from above

When darkness falls

Descend onto my sights

Your fallen walls

Spearhead break through the lines

Flanked all around

Soldiers of attrition

Forward their ground


[Bridge 2]

Regime prophetic age

Old in its time

Flowing veins run on through

Deep in the Rhine

Center of the web

All battles scored

What is our war crimes?

Era forever more

War


[Guitar Solo: Kerry King]


[Verse 3]

Propaganda war ensemble

Burial to be

Bones, shining by the night

In blood-laced misery

Campaign of elimination

Twisted psychology

When victory is to survive

And death is defeat


[Chorus]

Sport the war!

War support!

The sport is war, total war

When the end is a slaughter

The final swing is not a drill

It's how many people I can kill
