SONG: Fubar Snafu
[Intro – Spoken / Calm]
All systems nominal.
Mission proceeding as planned.
No deviations to report.
[Verse 1]
Briefing room, fluorescent glow
Charts and arrows, nice and slow
Every box is checked in blue
Nothing here that we can’t do
[Pre-Chorus]
Paper says we’re good to go
Nobody asks what we don’t know
[Chorus]
SNAFU, business as usual
Lines on paper look so beautiful
SNAFU, just another day
Everything’s okay… okay
[Verse 2]
Boots on gravel, engines cough
Half the signals dropping off
Maps don’t match the ground we see
Static where the truth should be
[Pre-Chorus]
Voices crackle, orders bend
Nobody knows where it ends
[Chorus]
SNAFU, just like they said
Nothing wrong that can’t be read
SNAFU, hold the line
Everything is going fine… fine
[Bridge – Shift]
Say it clean for the radio
Keep it tight, keep it slow
Say it clean so it sounds in control…
[Break – First Crack]
…it’s not in control
[Chant – Low voices building]
FUBAR… FUBAR…
[Verse 3 – Reality Takes Over]
Fuel is low and timing’s gone
Wrong place trying to carry on
Plans dissolve in dust and heat
Nothing matches what we meet
[Pre-Chorus]
Drop the code, drop the act
This is where we face the fact
[Chorus – Full Breakthrough]
FUBAR, nothing left to say
Every plan just burned away
FUBAR, loud and true
No one knows what else to do
[Outro – Mixed Voices]
(official voice) Situation under control
(real voice) It’s completely f*cked
(official voice) Maintain your role
(real voice) We’re out of luck
[Final Line – Quiet]
Mission proceeding… somehow
