Drive a Tank lyrics

Back in school I was a real hot stud

With muscles XXL

But the others thought my name was mud

And made my school days hell

Only CND or Greenpeace would

Impress these infidels

So I kept my temper hidden very well

I demonstrated

And remonstrated

For human rights I took a stand

Yet I wanted to

Drive a tank

A big green army tank

The real thing, no child's prank

Just wanted to drive a tank

After school I wanted to

Have fun and kick some ass

But again restraint came over me

I was cool at recess

I refused to serve, declined in style

“The army makes me scream

The league of nations is my one and only dream.”

Soon I got a real deal:

I brought the meals on wheels

But that was dumb and dull and stank

I just wanted to

Drive a tank

A big green army tank

The real thing, no child’s prank

Now and then when I was on tour

I was quite the entrepreneur

I put something in the meat pies

And they all were hospitalised

After that I became a nurse

Geriatrics, that was much worse

Which is when I've broken the law

'cause I bought a power saw

Sometimes I feel lonely, but for sure

I’m not a ladies' man

I dream of someone who will say to me: “I can...

...drive a tank!”

For once just drive a tank

Then shit will hit the fan

Drive a tank

At last just drive a tank

Then shit will hit the fan
