Lyrics
Clerks in barracks, clerks in bureaux (Pencil-pusher) Outpost X, capitol Y (Non-combatant) Without furlough; with no furlough. (Outpost) White armies do not you know? (Outpost) Red armies where might you go? (With out) Impervious to visions - seen it all before. (With no) Woolen blankets, barking orders. (Know?) Outflanked by treaty, confined by agreement. (Know?) Always, ever at the ready. Motor signals Tissues of fabrication. Tactico-practico-theoretical. People can't go to HQ. Shored up 'psycho-responsivenesses'. Safety caught design features. No-jam, air-cooled, machined-tooled Swivel-mount. Living slow, movements few. Soldier talk (Soldier talk) Soldier walk (Soldier walk) Imperatives (What an expensive life) Speak faster In a quonset hut In a nissen hut Cadence out. Theirs to command. (...ma-and.) Sanguinity do not fail me. Theirs to command.
I had a good life In a quonset hut. The doors would open The doors would shut The sun shined in The sun shined in I counted the specks There wasn't enough.
