Elvis Costello - Oliver's Army
------------------------------------------

Don't start that talking; I could talk all night
My mind is sleepwalking while I'm putting the world to right
Call careers information; Have you got yourself an occupation?

Oliver's army is here to stay; Oliver's army are on their way
And I would rather be anywhere else than here today

There was a checkpoint Charlie; He didn't crack a smile
But it's no laughing party when you've been on the murder mile
Only takes one itchy trigger; One more widow, one less white nigger

Oliver's army is here to stay; Oliver's army are on their way
And I would rather be anywhere else than here today

Hong Kong is up for grabs; London is full of Arabs
We could be in Palestine; Overrun by a Chinese line
With the boys from the Mersey and the Thames and the Tyne

But there's no danger; It's a professional career
Though it could be arranged with just a word in Mr. Churchill's ear

If you're out of luck or out of work
We could send you to Johannesburg

Oliver's army is here to stay; Oliver's army are on their way
And I would rather be anywhere else than here today
And I would rather be anywhere else than here today
And I would rather be anywhere else than here today
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh ......
