We came second in a battle of the bands a long, long time ago. I wrote this in the car on the drove home - PS. There were only 2 bands in the battle.
lyrics
Am I a sore loser? Well I'm not quite sure
I did a bang up job now I'm looking for a reward
The monkey danced for the man behind the desk
But the ticket on your wall doesn't mean you know best
Yes drill-sargent, on my command
Left right dogtag around your neck
It's a good sound with dollar sign eyes
But this horse fell short of the wayside
You just don't get it
All the things I'm trying to say
You just don't get it
The music I try to play
I think I read it
Page 5, book 101, you don't like it 'til it's been done
You don't get it
And I guess you never will
Well I'd like to see the light but I don't know where it's at
I'd like to change the tune but the record's been scratched
Where's the truth I read so much about
Put your hands in the air but the time is not now
Yes drill-sargent on my command
Left right soldier and a gun in your hand
Take the field notes give them to the doc
I got a message for your suggestion box
The jobs we hate that pay
Forfeit the life we make
