In the Army Now 
vacation in a foreign land 
Uncle Sam does the best he can 
You're in the army now 
Oh, oh, you're in the army now 

Now you remember what 
the draftman said 
Nothing to do all day but stay in bed 
You're in the army now 
Oh, oh, you're in the army now 

You be the hero of the neiborhood 
Nobody knows that you left 
for good 
You're in the army now 
Oh, oh, you're in the army now 

Smiling faces as you wait 
to land 
But once you get there no one gives a [bad word] 
You're in the army now 
Oh, 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, oh, you're in the army now 

Shots ring out in the dad of night 
The sergeant calls: stand up and fight 
You're in the army now 
Oh, 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, oh, you're in the army now 
You're in the army now 
Oh, 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, oh, you're in the army now 
You're in the army now 
Oh, oh, you're in the army now 

Oh, oh, you're in the army now
