cup of self -shaving yesterday,
I guess I'm getting older
Gonna quit the games I used to play,
cause they're making me a soldier
And I'm gonna fight no more,
I'm gonna win, maybe I might
Like I saw it on TV just the other night
I'm gonna have to say goodbye
Jackie is the one I miss most of all,
cause she is my girlfriend
And I'm gonna fight the war,
gonna join the Army's ranks
As long as my enemy isn't nice
If there's a lack of entertainment,
A thousand rappers of double -bubble gum
A hundred twenty -three and then I'm done
I hope I'll get it before I go
Cause I'm gonna fight the war
I'm gonna march in the infantry
And when the shooting starts
I will hide behind a tree
I read my first newspaper yesterday
All that it said was that I didn't
wanna hear what it had to say
I think the whole world's mad
There's no need to worry,
that I'll be home before long
I finally cut myself shaving yesterday,
I guess I'm getting older
Gonna quit the games I used to play,
cause they're making me a soldier
And I'm gonna fight the war,
Like I saw it on TV just the other night
