Take No Prisoners

The captain, on his horse...no remorse, no quarter
Enemy signals surrender, south of the border
But, take no prisoners when the captain gives the order

The captain, on his horse...no remorse, no quarter
The whites of the eyes of the enemy soldier
Deny him the right to surrender when it's over


Execute execution...without retribution, and


Shoot on sight when the captain gives the order
The captain, on his horse...no remorse, no quarter

White flag flyin' high, signal meant to be ignored
Time to give up and die...doesn't matter anymore

The solution to the problem is to end it before
Beginning again...before ending in war


Execute execution...without retribution...


Line 'em up, shoot 'em down, mortar south of the border
Deny them the right to surrender when it's over
The captain, on his horse...no remorse, no quarter

The command's been given from the unforgiving soldier
Enemy surrenders, signal south of the border
But, take no prisoners when the captain gives the order
