Mr. Military man would you ever understand
The way the kids feel
When the kids peel in the yard
Mr. Military man would never understand
The way the kids feel
When the kids peel in the yard
Falling in the dark
Playing in the park
I wonder if you sit days alone
Asking your eyes if what theyve seen are real
Have they seen what things are real?
Theyre tired from torn up carca**es
And ladies youve left with unborn kids
With the disease and hate for every inch of what you are
Mr. Military man would never understand
The way the kids feel
When the kids peel in the yard
Mr. Military man would never understand
The way the kids feel
When the kids peel in the yard
Falling in the dark
Playing in the park
I wonder if you sit days alone
Asking your eyes if what theyve seen are real
Have they seen what things are real?
Theyre tired from torn up carca**es
And ladies youve left with unborn kids
With the disease and hate for every inch of what you are
Have you been sleeping well nights inside
Could have been better without your friends
Here with me in my house
Were talking about what you were like
Before you went away and we all agree youre better off
Staying away at least until youre a hollow burned out
Shell of yourself, brain-dead from the bread inside
Then you can come out and see us
Then you can save whatever piece of love is left for you
But I honestly doubt theres going to be anything more than
There is now. In time well try to forget about it and maybe we will
And the only thing you have time for is us
The only thing youre ever going to think about is us
And how they wouldnt let you go to your fathers funeral
Or see your mother after he died. How could anyone believe
That youre right? How could anyone believe what you say anymore?
Mr. Soldier. Mr. Military man. Mr. Soldier. Mr. Military man
