[Verse 1]
What did you mean when you opened your mouth and let all our secrets out?
You told him what I was about, my cover was completely blown
I tell you darling, I've been watching the war films
And I've got a few ideas of my own
Because after the film had ended, the call for recruits was shown
[Chorus]
And I'll be joining the professionals, I want to be a man
With all that animal magic I'll do anything you can
I'm joining the professionals because I want to be a man
Look! I wave my wand, watch the rabbit disappear
Join the professionals and learn to fight!
[Verse 2]
I bet the two of you still laugh at me for being timid as a lamb
That may be the way I look, but it's no longer what I am
I've been across to Northern Ireland
And I came home with a new kind of charge
I learned how to hunt in the night, I learned about camouflage
[Chorus]
I've been joining the professionals, and now that I'm a man
With all that animal magic I'll match anything you can
I'm joining the professionals, this time I understand
Look! I wave my wand, watch the rabbit disappear
Join the professionals and learn to fight!
