| Naked as sin an army towel covers my body
|
| Some of us blush, somehow knees turn to jelly —
|
| Next! |
| Next!
|
| I was still just a kid, there were a hundred others like me
|
| I follow the naked body, the naked body follows me —
|
| Next! |
| Next!
|
| I was still just a kid when my innocence was lost
|
| In a mobile-army whore house, gift of the army, free of cost!
|
| Next! |
| You’re next!
|
| Me? |
| I really would have liked, just a little touch of tenderness
|
| Mybe a word or smile, some happiness, but oh! |
| No!
|
| Next! |
| Next!
|
| Well it wasn’t so tragic the high heavens didn’t fall
|
| But most of that time I hated being there at all …
|
| Next! |
| Next!
|
| I always recall those flying flags, the army tanks
|
| Those queer lieutenants who slapped our asses as if we were fags …
|
| Next! |
| You’re next!
|
| I swear on the head of my first case of the pox!
|
| It’s that ugly voice that I forever hear …
|
| Next! |
| Next!
|
| The voice that stinks of corpses of whiskey and mud
|
| It’s the voice of the nations, the thick, thick, voice of blood …
|
| Next! |
| Next!
|
| And each time I’m with a woman and I take her to my bed
|
| She whispers and laughs through my head …
|
| Next! |
| … You’re next!
|
| All the naked and the dead should hold each others hands
|
| As I scream out loud each night in a dream no-one understands …
|
| Next! |
| … Next!
|
| And when I’m not screaming in a voice cold, dry and hollow…
|
| I stand on endless, naked lines of the following and the followed …
|
| Next! |
| Next!
|
| One day I’ll cut my legs off, I’ll burn myself alive
|
| I’d do anything, anything, just to keep out of line
|
| Just to stay out of line and never to be next!
|
| No, never to be next! |
| No! |
| Na! |
| Na! |
| Na! |
| Next! |
