Lyrics In The Army Now - Status Quo

In The Army Now

A vacation in a foreign land, Uncle Sam does the best he can
You're in the army now, oh-oo-oh you're in the army now
Now you remember what the draft man said,
nothing to do all day but stay in bed
You're in the army now,
oh-oo-oh you're in the army now
You'll be the hero of the neighbourhood,
nobody knows that you've left for good
You're in the army now,
oh-oo-oh you're in the army now
Smiling faces as you wait to land,
but once you get there no-one gives a damn
You're in the army now,
oh-oo-oh you're in the army now
Hand grenades flying over your head
Missiles flying over your head,
if you want to survive get out of bed
You're in the army now,
oh-oo-oh you're in the army now
Shots ring out in the dead of night,
the sergeant calls 'Stand up and fight!'
You're in the army now,
oh-oo-oh you're in the army now
You've got your orders better shoot on sight,
your finger's on the trigger but it don't seem right
You're in the army now,
oh-oo-oh you're in the army now
You're in the army now,
oh-oo-oh you're in the army now
Night is falling and you just can't see, is this illusion or reality?
You're in the army now,
oh-oo-oh you're in the army, in the army now
You're in the army now,
oh-oo-oh you're in the army now
Oh-oo-oh you're in the army, in the army now
Oh-oo-oh you're in the army, in the army now
Oh-oo-oh you're in the army, in the army now
