peter mcpoland - a lousy soldier lyrics

[verse 1]
ma, you raised a lousy soldier
i cannot stomach fighting
my sword is made of rubber
in my sheath with velvet lining
and i walk beside my captain
we look out on the hillside
he wears his armor loosely
but he holds his rapier tightly

[chorus]
ooh+oh
i wish i was born a cannon (canon)
i wish i was born a gun (or a gun)
i’d load it with an answer
and i’d aim it at the sun (at the sun)
i wish i was born an angel (angel)
i wish i was born the dawn (at the dawn)
i’d fly out over the new world
and i’d bring my message home

[verse 2]
ma, i picked a pansy flower
i pressed it in my bible (my bible)
i wish you’d raised a coward
instead of a disciple (disciple)
the medals on my collar
hang heavy as a boulder (as a boulder)
and if it is, i fall here
remember your lousy soldier
[chorus]
ooh+oh
i wish i was born a cannon (canon)
i wish i was born a gun (or a gun)
i’d load it with an answer
and i’d aim it at the sun (at the sun)
i wish i was born an angel (angel)
i wish i was born the dawn (with the dawn)
i’d fly out over the new world
and i’d bring my message home

[outro]
do+do+do+do+do (do+do+do+do+do)
do+do+do+do+do (do+do+do+do+do)
do+do+do+do+do+do+do
do+do+do+do+do
do+do+do+do+do (do+do+do+do+do)
do+do+do+do+do (do+do+do+do+do)
do+do—
