Annotation
Product of a War Machine (Gentry, Wayne) (Mr. Music Records # MM-004) Garage rock. Nashville, Tennessee. Anti-war. "I am a product of a war machine, take me tonight if you will... I've learned the way too well, left with nothing but with the knowledge To kill, from the rooftop I see below...sons flee to and fro Silently, injected the needle of fear with the thought of metal raining So near, maybe a mad man, a social reject...I'm performing what you Have taught me, I am a product of a war machine, take me tonight... The molded me into a firearms expert, and sent me a far country For my work, I've wiped out so many...oh how to turn this thing off"
