from here to eternity: the musical original london cast - i love the army lyrics
maggio
you know i’ve always loved the army
and all my buddies love it too
i don’t love the army when i ain’t allowed to soldier
just another greasy wop to screw
i’d rather do sh+t than be shat on
i’d rather break out than break rocks
but physical’s easy to manage
a beating ain’t worse than the pox
never got no stripes yet for my pains
if i had a hammer, but no chains
i’d be busting b+lls and backs and brains
fatso (spoken)
swing that hammer, greaseball
maggio
i love the army
but it don’t give me a break
i love the army
but there’s only so much i can take
didn’t join the army to feel free
but i didn’t ask for third degree
what’s the army ever done for me?
you know i’ve always loved my country
like any lousy immigrant would
sure i’ve got immigrated rights, it says somewhere
but right now they don’t do me no good
who wants to be a godd+mn citizen?
who needs a job or wants a vote?
nothing’s gonna make a dime of difference, nuhuh
no one’s gonna help keep you afloat
so how’d i end up in the trash today?
if i’m so important like they say?
i just don’t get the usa
i love my country
but i’m planning to blow
i love my country
see you down in mexico
anyplace i am i guarantee
always gonna be a refugee
what’s my country ever done for me?
you know, i’ve always had religion
at least the kind they gave me as a kid
that’s the kind of rock i wouldn’t mind saluting
if i somehow gonna learn, i never did
well, god was never easy to believe in
just like not believing anything at all
but i ain’t no suicide contender, nuhuh
no you’ll never have this poor boy to the wall
even if i can’t fight back and win
i can stand up for the shape i’m in
taking pride in losing ain’t no sin
fatso (spoken)
now, i swear, i’m gonna beat you so hard your little guinea sister is gonna be crying in shame
maggio
i love religion
god come and take me away
i love religion
it’s always “no” and “go pray”
only in this h+llhole do i see
heaven’s not the place i want to be
what’s god ever done for me?
fatso (spoken)
what in god’s name? five days in the hole, wop
maggio (spoken)
bite me
fatso (spoken)
make that ten
maggio
i love the army
i hate the army
f+ck the army
what’s it ever done for me
