Now you remember what the draft man said

Nothing to do all day but stay in bed

Oh, oh you're in the army - now

You'll be a hero of the neighbourhood

Nobody knows that you left for good

Smiling faces on the way to 'Nam

But once you get there no one gives a ***

The sun's flying over your head

If you wanna survive you're out of bet

Shots ring out in the dead of night

The sergeant calls : \"Stand up and fight!\"

You've got your orders to shoot on sight

your finger's on the trigger but it don't seem right

Night is falling and you just can't see

Is this illusion or reality
