Welcome to my, history class
The unexamined life is repeating the past
It was only 30 years ago, we need to ask
Why'd the US help Afghanis, defeat Russia's A**
Mother Russia got, to big for her britches
Wanted territory, didn't belong to the misses
So the U.S. took our hard work and honor
Created that into billions of dollars
They created nifty shoulder wear
Guaranteed to blow up, anything in the air

CHORUS:
Here we go again
It's the same ol thing, but a different story
Here we go again
It's a different story, same ol thing
What have we begun
Yesterday, looks a lot like today
What have we begun
Not looking to the past, is repeating the same

Gorbachev decided in 1989
Russia had enough and maybe Reagan was right
Time for mother Russia to say her good byes
Leaving the Afghani kids, a land full of mines
Now the U.S. was there, all 10 years of the plight
Giving our money and weapons, up for the fight
But after the war, we didn't stay to keep em warm

LET'S GIVE EM SOME SCHOOLS
OUR HELP CAN BE MISTAKEN

Never did those things, and now we are paying

CHORUS:
Here we go again
It's the same ol thing, but a different story
Here we go again
It's a different story, same ol thing
What have we begun
Yesterday, looks a lot like today
What have we begun
Not looking to the past, is repeating the same

BRIDGE:
We pay our enemies 2xs
Yesterday, looks a lot like today
Yesterday, looks a lot like
TODAY 2xs

CHORUS:
Here we go again
Here we go 2xs
Here we go again
Here we go 2xs
Yesterday looks a lot like today
Yesterday looks a lot like
Yesterday looks a lot like today
Yesterday looks a lot like
Here we go 2xs
Repeating the same
