A vacation in a foreign land
Uncle Sam does the best he can
Youre in the army now
Oh, oh, youre in the army now
Now you remember what the draftsman said
Nothing to do all day but stay in bed
Youre in the army now
Oh, oh, youre in the army now
Youll be the hero of the neighbourhood
Nobody knows that you left for good
Youre in the army now
Oh, oh, youre in the army now
Smiling faces as you wait to land
But once you get there no one gives a damn
Youre in the army now
Oh, oh, youre in the army now
Hand grenades flying over your head
Missile rounds flying over your head
If you want to survive get out of bed
Youre in the army now
Oh, oh, youre in the army now
Shots ring out in the dead of night
The sergeant calls Stand up and fight
Youre in the army now
Oh, oh, youre in the army now
Youre in the army now
Oh, oh, youre in the army now
Youve got your orders better shoot on sight
Your fingers on the trigger
But it dont seem right
Youre in the army now
Oh, oh, youre in the army now
Youre in the army now
Oh, oh, youre in the army now
Night is falling and you just cant see
Is this illusion or reality
Youre in the army now
Oh, oh, youre in the army
In the army now
Youre in the army now
Oh, oh, youre in the army
In the army now
Youre in the army now
Oh, oh youre in the army now
Youre in the army now
