Smiles, marine recruiter Teach you to program computers Teach you all the skills you need You can die with dignity I got a phone call from the sergeant yesterday He had a message from the good old U.S.A.: "Good grades, high I.Q., you're one terrific guy We'll let you push the buttons while the other people die." No way, that's what I say I don't want to be a marine today Sgt. Smiles, marine recruiter Teach you to program computers Teach you all the skills you need You can be a fucking pig And that's why the sergeant smiles Everyday in high school when I got home Marine recruiters called me on the phone Oh god, never thought it would come to this I get cards I get calls now I'm on the mailing list Mom I'm not home if they call me on the phone
