Fit To Fly, written by Cher for her album not.com.mercial

"I started out writing this song for my grandfather who was in The Invasion of Normandy (WWII), but then I realized I was writing it for all the men and women who have served their country and then somehow been "kicked to the curb." It pisses me off to see how we just turn our backs on people who risked their lives so that we can be safe and sit around on our asses and play war games on our game boys." -Cher

Oh brother, man where are you
I am bucklin' from the load
I have lost my eye for color
And my heart can't see the road

Oh sister, come and catch me
'Cause my legs, their prime has passed
I am breakin' from the sorrow
And my faith is fadin' fast

Mother, Father help me
I'm your flesh and blood and bone
Don't you hear me
Can't you see me
Am I doomed to live alone

Without warmth or love or honor
Like a dog out on the street
Am I trash 'cause I can't manage
Must I grovel at your feet

I'm the boy who fought your battles
And I'm the man who won your wars
Is it over? Have you used me?
I'm no value anymore

I'm your mothers, wives and daughters
I'm your fathers, husbands, sons
I'm the life's blood of this country
I'm the hopeful precious ones

Am I nothin'? Am I no one?
Once a fabric,
Now a rag
We treat people like they're nothing
We're not fit to fly, fit to fly
No, no, no, - no, no, no

We're not fit to fly-
Fit to fly a flag (no, no, no)
Join the army,
See the world
The marine corps
Join the navy
We're not fit to fly
Fit to fly the flag
