Teach you to program computers
Teach you all the skills you need
You can die with dignity
I got a phone call from the sergeant yesterday
He had a message from the good old U.S.A.:
"Good grades, high I.Q., you're one terrific guy
We'll let you push the buttons while the other people die."
No way, that's what I say
I don't want to be a marine today
Sgt. Smiles, marine recruiter
Teach you to program computers
Teach you all the skills you need
You can be a fucking pig
And that's why the sergeant smiles
Everyday in high school when I got home
Marine recruiters called me on the phone
Oh god, never thought it would come to this
I get cards I get calls now I'm on the mailing list
Mom I'm not home if they call me on the phone
Sgt. Smiles, marine recruiter Teach you to program computers Teach you all the skills you need You can die with dignity I got a phone call from the sergeant yesterday He had a message from the good old U.S.A.: "Good grades, high I.Q., you're one terrific guy We'll let you push the buttons while the other people die."
