recessive traits - steel blue lyrics

[verse 1]
this is no place for a man with a conscience
this is no place for a moral man to hide
i signed up for weekend work
a chance for some extra time
some buddies from high school
they said it would be cool
they said it would be alright

[verse 2]
maintenance mechanic, a place to grow, they said
but it’s summer back home, i should be fishing instead
and now i’m looking out the window
of my first class olive drab
the gulf of mexico laughing back like steel blue

[verse 3]
morality is simple, now good and bad are black and white
left and right, night and day through the commanding officer’s eyes
they took a knife and severed the connection
between the halves of my brains
i don’t worry too much, i don’t think too much
i don’t have any more of the pain

[verse 4]
my hands are all wet from gripping my weapon so tight
so i shift my grip for a cool feel to make it seem alright
back in the campground, i’m thinking what i found
in the jungle of san salvador
we’ll take a quote from monroe
we’ll fight ’til we know we are safe from the big red machine
[outro]
laughing like steel blue
laughing like steel blue
laughing like steel blue
laughing like steel, steel, steel blue
