The Lyrics
We warred in the midst of a jungle
In palm trees and shrub'ry and more,
We brought in the guns in big bundles
And slept on the wet jungle floor
The leaders they couldn't remember
The issues were quickly forgot
Jungle war in the wake of pouring rain
Every battle is better when wet
Jungle war, the shots all around
Confusion is crazy
Jungle war, the shells on the ground
Confusion is crazy
See lately we live in the jungle
The warriors are hidden quite well
We attack from inside little foxholes
Camouflage is where we can excel
The answers to everyone's troubles
Is solved by these battles, this war
And the leaders who reign
Fight these battles in vain
Just trying to even the score
Jungle war, the shots all around
Confusion is crazy
Jungle war, the shells on the ground
Confusion is crazy
Conditions in here are atrocious
And even in rain the temp's warm
The cycles of troop intervention
Don't help the corps to reform
We live in a world of illusion
Where everything's blood on the walls
If this battle marks life's conclusion
I hope to be walking God's halls
Jungle war, the shots all around
Confusion is crazy
Jungle war, the shells on the ground
Confusion is crazy
Jungle war, the shots all around
Confusion is crazy
Jungle war, the shells on the ground
Confusion is crazy
In palm trees and shrub'ry and more,
We brought in the guns in big bundles
And slept on the wet jungle floor
The leaders they couldn't remember
The issues were quickly forgot
Jungle war in the wake of pouring rain
Every battle is better when wet
Jungle war, the shots all around
Confusion is crazy
Jungle war, the shells on the ground
Confusion is crazy
See lately we live in the jungle
The warriors are hidden quite well
We attack from inside little foxholes
Camouflage is where we can excel
The answers to everyone's troubles
Is solved by these battles, this war
And the leaders who reign
Fight these battles in vain
Just trying to even the score
Jungle war, the shots all around
Confusion is crazy
Jungle war, the shells on the ground
Confusion is crazy
Conditions in here are atrocious
And even in rain the temp's warm
The cycles of troop intervention
Don't help the corps to reform
We live in a world of illusion
Where everything's blood on the walls
If this battle marks life's conclusion
I hope to be walking God's halls
Jungle war, the shots all around
Confusion is crazy
Jungle war, the shells on the ground
Confusion is crazy
Jungle war, the shots all around
Confusion is crazy
Jungle war, the shells on the ground
Confusion is crazy

I couldn't find this song, although it's half-way familiar. Based on your good pacing on your other Steve Miller song and your parody itself....5's And good job! (I like Steve Miller songs)
Good job. 5s. Sounds like you've been there.
