Lyrics
Yes, I am a soldier boy and yes I do protect this country
But I’m also sent anywhere else on Earth these fuckers want me
It’s my job to go and die on order of the politicians
In these modern times, money and power are the main religions
Tie attacks on us together with some distant far off land
One big show of power, man, it all strengthens their global brand
In a war on terror, but you won’t find no Bin Laden here
If we’re stopping tyrants, why the fuck ain’t we in North Korea?
But, I just follow orders. please don’t blame me if things get too bleak
People help their heroes, helping bureaus, help me fucking sleep
Ignore the leaks of treatment’s kind of breaking that Geneva shit
In these sour times, you take the line and just bend it a bit
Ha; I’m jackin' em, I’m jackin' em
And if we cannot find their oil, I’m slappin' em, I’m slappin' em
At your local party, if a kid plays up, you smack it, eh
I’m just disciplining these kids so we see a brighter day
Yes I am that cheap, that killing machine, I feed that need, I serve
Show me the enemy and I’m readily steppin' to any Native feeling Brave,
wanna claim that turf
Burn this town; write my name in the dirt
I’m a space invader, see me work
Give no quarter, scorch the earth
Soldier boy — I told ya boy — Your home’s destroyed my walk is mean
If we hangin' tyrants then England you better watch the Queen
If we talkin' violence then I’mma probably be on the scene
We have formed alliances now that force us to intervene
We anticipate your compliance with the Authorities
We provide reminders of what is behind the Order of Things, yeah
Boys turn men learn us vs. them
Toy turn weapon destroy defend
Gun in hand, you’re ready to earn
Good soldier boy say sir, yes sir
Catch me at your local high school passing out recruiter forms
Can’t find you a job but we can get you in a uniform
