Last night I dreamt that I saw fear and dark
In the US Army marine canteen
It felt so real to me, it felt so strong
But at the same time kind of strange
I told them all about my life as far
About my dreams, and fears and hopes
They took me off on how to carry myself
And how to climb a slippery slope
To be honest I was kinda scared to be there
It was nice to see a friendly face
I didn't mix that well with the other recruits
All fat and old and out of place
They looked at me as if I felt the war
Were they really paying it my dues
Like I rubbed them up the wrong way, blew up their cool
Put stones into the rally blues, hey
♪
Phil told me not to worry, it would be fine
If I just learned to walk the line
Don said it's true that we invented this train
But you worked the tag and ride our tail
And if you're having trouble keeping up
And feel that you could use a break
Just remember the price of love, of labor and lust
Will be bestowed for those with faith
I told them running order, what a treat
Join up in three part harmony
Let it be me devoted to a clown
It was a joy to be around
We harmonised to dawn in brotherly love
I felt so happy I could cry
But at the same time I was so, so sad when we said bye
Bye, bye
Bye
Bye, bye
