You're In The Army Now
A location in a foreign land, / Uncle Sam does the best he can. / You're in
the army now. / Oh oh, you're in the army, now.
Now you remember what the draft-man said: / "Nothing to do all day but stay in
bed." / You're in the army now. / Oh oh, you're in the army, now.
You'll be the hero of the neighborhood, / Nobody knows that you left for good.
/ You're in the army now. / Oh oh, you're in the army, now.
Smiling faces as you wait to land, / But once you get there no one gives a
damn. / You're in the army now. / Oh oh, you're in the army, now.
Handgranades flying over, your head drums, / Missiles flying over your head, /
If you want to survive, get out of bed! / You're in the army now. / Oh oh,
you're in the army, now.
Shots ring out in the dead of night, / The sergeant calls "Stand up and
fight!" / You're in the army now. / Oh oh, you're in the army, now.
You're in the army now. / Oh oh, you're in the army, now.
You've got your orders: better shoot / On site, the fingers on the trigger. /
But it don't seem right. / You're in the army now. / Oh oh, you're in the
army, now. / You're in the army now.
Night is falling and you just can't see. / Is this illusion or reality? /
You're in the army now. / Oh oh, you're in the army, now. / In the army,
now...
