A vacation in the foreign land
Uncle Sam does the best he can
You're in the army now
Oh, oh you're in the army - now
Now you remember what the draft man said
Nothing to do all day but stay in bed
You're in the army now
Oh, oh you're in the army - now
You'll be a hero of the neighbourhood
Nobody knows that you left for good
You're in the army now
Oh, oh you're in the army - now
Smiling faces on the way to 'Nam
But once you get there no one gives a damn
You're in the army now
Oh, oh you're in the army - now
Hand grenades flying over your head
Missiles flying over your head
If you want to survive get out of bed
You're in the army now
Oh, oh you're in the army - now
Shots ring out in the dead of night
The sergeant calls : "Stand up and fight!"
You're in the army now
Oh, oh you're in the army - now
You've got your orders to shoot on sight
your finger's on the trigger but it don't seem right
You're in the army now
Oh, oh you're in the army - now
Night is falling and you just can't see
Is this illusion or reality
You're in the army now
Oh, oh you're in the army - now

Uncle Sam does the best he can
You're in the army now
Oh, oh you're in the army - now
Now you remember what the draft man said
Nothing to do all day but stay in bed
You're in the army now
Oh, oh you're in the army - now
You'll be a hero of the neighbourhood
Nobody knows that you left for good
You're in the army now
Oh, oh you're in the army - now
Smiling faces on the way to 'Nam
But once you get there no one gives a damn
You're in the army now
Oh, oh you're in the army - now
Hand grenades flying over your head
Missiles flying over your head
If you want to survive get out of bed
You're in the army now
Oh, oh you're in the army - now
Shots ring out in the dead of night
The sergeant calls : "Stand up and fight!"
You're in the army now
Oh, oh you're in the army - now
You've got your orders to shoot on sight
your finger's on the trigger but it don't seem right
You're in the army now
Oh, oh you're in the army - now
Night is falling and you just can't see
Is this illusion or reality
You're in the army now
Oh, oh you're in the army - now
