Lyrics
Changes to the lyrics in the 1986 version remove references to the Vietnam war but maintain an anti-war message.
In 2010, the lyrics changed, replacing some of the song's anti-War lyrics. Examples:
A vacation in a foreign landUncle Sam does the best he can
…
Your finger's on the trigger but it don't seem right —1986 version You're on your way to a foreign land
Now's the time to do what you can
…
Your finger's on the trigger, now it's time to fight —2010 version
