You got no job you got no pay
Join the military, sign today
They`ll take you off to fight on foreign shores

You`ll be your mother`s pride and joy
Her armed and dangerous golden boy
A uniformed hero that shows no fear


The khaki ranks of flesh and steel
Learning how to smile and kill
They`ll teach you to ignore the screams and tears
