Well, Edaddy joined the Air Force, said it was a good source Danger, love, and money, but it only led to divorce Ended up in Abilene, working at a Dairy Queen Put me in the Army on the day that I turned seventeen AHere I am standin' in the desert with a gun Thought of going AWOL but I'm too 'fraid to run So I Egot myself a new plan, stealin' from the Taliban Make a little money turning poppies into heroin B7Sergeant didn't like it so they put me in a hole I D7said, "It's easy shootin' when they don't know where to go" EThrew me on a lily pad, sent me home to NORAD I knew I'd be in trouble but I didn't think it’d be this bad
EStranger wearin' all black, met me on the tarmac Told him I was sorry but I ain't ever going back He said, “You ain't in trouble son, learn to fight without a gun Got a new assignment now, you're working for the Pentagon” AGonna take a trip, wouldn't tell me what it's for Gotta serve your country, gonna help us win the war EM.I.T. Ph.D.'s, night & day, they're testing me Ain't what I was thinking but I'm bein' all that I can be B7 I ain't no genius but I knew it wasn't right Eating D7uppers in the morning and LSD at night ESend me off to deep space, help 'em win the arms race Hola mi, oh mighty, but this shit has got a funny taste

I Ethink I hear the countdown, hundred feet above the ground Told me when I'm leavin' but a-nothing 'bout a-coming down Sittin' on a bad dream, thousand pounds of gasoline Ain't leavin' nothing but some rubble and my slipstream AMama always said I should be aimin' for the moon Never would've guessed that I'd be passin' by soon EHow the hell'd I get here? Blastin' through the atmosphere Drop the rocket boosters and I'm shiftin' into high gear B7Bowie on the system and a bottle on my knee D7Armstrong ain't got nothing on me EHey ho, here we go, KMAG YOYO Someone wanna get me, gotta come up where the sun don't go

I Ethink I see a bright light, something 'bout it ain't right I laid down in a spaceship, woke up in a firefight Trippin' from the morphine, came down in a bad scene God, don't let me die here, I ain't even nineteen A I won't ever ask you, Lord, for anything again I'll swear it on the Bible, Torah, Koran ELyin' in a rhino track 'bout to have a heart attack I.E.D. got to me, someone call the Medevac B7 I need some fixin' after where it is I've been D7Never wanna go and try and shoot a gun again ESlippin' out the back door, gonna join the Peace Corps Tell me I'm a hero now so someone else can fight this war
