UB40 — Present Arms lyrics

Lyrics

You got no job, you got no pay
Join the military, sign today
They’ll take you off to fight on foreign shores
Be your mother’s pride and joy
Her armed and dangerous golden boy
They’re payin' to protect while isn’t you
Be your mother’s pride and joy
Her armed and dangerous golden boy
A uniformed hero shows no fear
The khaki ranks of flesh and steel
Learning how to smile and kill
They’ll teach you to ignore the screams and tears
You’ll be your mother’s pride and joy
Her armed and dangerous golden boy
A uniformed hero shows no fear
The khaki ranks of flesh and steel
Learning how to smile and kill
They’ll teach you to ignore the screams and tears
