[Verse 1] You built your house on a draft card Paper spine in a gold frame You love the flags and the fanfare Skip the fire Skip the flame All that swagger on the TV All that thunder in your mouth But when it’s time to lace the boots up You start staring at the ground [Chorus] President Bone Spurs Send Barron Since you’re too tender for the war you’re sharing All that courage in your tweets each night Put your own blood on the first red flight President Bone Spurs Send Barron If it’s glory that you keep declaring Let the ones you raised go hold that line Or stop cashing in on borrowed spine [Verse 2] You sell fear like it’s fireworks Light the fuse Never hold the flame Shake the hands of the heartbreak Then you gamble with their names You keep talking about duty About sacrifice and pain Funny how your heel starts aching When there’s something real at stake [Chorus] President Bone Spurs Send Barron Since you’re too tender for the war you’re sharing All that courage in your suit and tie Book your own blood where the bullets fly President Bone Spurs Send Barron If this battle’s worth the banners flaring Let the ones you love go stand and fight Or quit trading on a borrowed fight [Bridge] Every speech Every loud salute Paid in skin that is not yours If the cost is such a righteous cause Why’s your family through the door? (through the door) [Chorus] President Bone Spurs Send Barron Since you’re too tender for the war you’re sharing If the throne needs one more sacrifice Lay your pedigree upon the dice President Bone Spurs Send Barron Or stop the marching and the drumbeat daring Either wager what you truly prize Or stop selling us your borrowed lies
