Oliver´s Army

Don´t start that talking
I could talk all night
My mind goes sleep walkin´
While I´m puttin´ the world to right
Call careers information
Got yourself an occupation

Oliver´s army is here to stay
Oliver´s army are on their way
And I would rather be anywhere else
Than here today

There was a checkpoint Charlie
He didn´t pack a smile
But it´s no laughing party
When you´ve been on the murder mile
Only takes one inch of trigger
One more widow, one less white nigger

Oliver´s army is here to stay
Oliver´s army are on their way
And I would rather be anywhere else
Than here today

Hong Kong is up for grabs
London is full of ab´s
We could be in Palestine
Overrun by the chinese line
With the boys from the mersey
And the thames and the tyne

But there´s no danger
It´s a professional carrer
Though it could be arranged
With just a word in Mr. Churchill´s ear
If you´re out of luck or out of work
We could send you to Johannesburg

Oliver´s army is here to stay
Oliver´s army are on their way
And I would rather be anywhere else
Than here today
And I would rather be anywhere else
Than here today
And I would rather be...
