Mighty Mighty Bosstones - Tin Soldiers слова песни
(original song by stiff little fingers)He turned up to get a jobTo show he wasnt scaredAll wrapped up in that army crapHe thought hed be preparedWell at the age of seventeen,He was forced to chooseNow at the age of twenty-oneHes in catch-22He turned up for just three yearsIt seemed a small amountBut what they didnt tell him wasThe first two didnt countAt the age of seventeen how was he to know? That at the age of twenty-oneHed still have more to go? Tin soldier! he signed away his name!Tin soldier! no chance of casual fame!Tin soldier! well now he knows the truth!Tin soldier! he signed away his youth!He turned up, to start out rightTo do right by his sonWell now he waitsAnd he counts the daysThat mark time since day oneAt the age of seventeenHe did what he was toldNow at the age of twenty-oneTheres still one-third to go!Tin soldier! he signed away his name!Tin soldier! no chance of casual fame!Tin soldier! well now he knows the truth!Tin soldier! he signed away his youth!(left! right! left right left! left! right! left right left!)At the age of seventeenHe fall in line toNow at the age of twenty-oneHe still marches to(one! two! three! four!)Tin soldier! he signed away his name!Tin soldier! no chance of casual fame!Tin soldier! well now he knows the truth!Tin soldier! he signed away his youth!Tin soldier! what is he fighting for? Tin soldier! to win a fucking war? Tin soldier! (completely indecipherable lyric)Tin soldier! arrgh yeah!!!!Signed away his nameSigned away his name
