Last Year's Youth Army Life Lyrics

You never give up the army...
GO!

Join the army at seventeen
Til you swear that you're a killing machine
Clean my rifle everyday
I gotta do whatever the army says

[Chorus:]
Army life is killing me, me, me, me, me, me
Army life is killing me

Went to Belfast, just a f*ckin bam
Walking about with a Tommy gun
Sooner or later you'll end up dead
you'll just be a lad in your local paper [Chorus]

They bell us up just for them in the morning (?)
I've gorra gerrup or I'll be there to change (?)
You walk through the guardroom for a piss
You've gotta do whatever the army says

[Chorus]

I joined the army to learn to kill
I joined the army to be a man
But all I learned in they long years is
You've gotta do whatever the army says
