Serving Your Country!

“Serving your country” can be a good deal
If you’re doing it in America!
Get a free education at Annapolis
Or West Point or Colorado Springs.
Yeah, they pay your way all day!
What a deal for such noble service!
Now, I didn’t mind Annapolis;
Met some excellent men when I was there.
And I don’t denigrate the military;
Got some nations out there we got to beat,
And like the firemen or the police,
We’re glad for them in emergency,
But there are many ways a fellow can serve.
And sometimes it takes a little nerve:
You got to blow those “clinics” away!
It’s the way, I say, we got to play.
Can’t put up with such “toleration”
Of bloodshed throughout the nation;
Sittin’ around, smilin’ every day,
As if we got nothin’ to say
Or a match to light up a fuse
And to celebrate with joy and booze,
The burning of a “clinic” to the ground.
Oh, now that’s where joy can be found!
