Wargames - The Tongue, Joyride

I got this energy

Been building inside of me all damn week

If you don’t let me out I’m gon' break free

My fuse is lit and I’m a blow it all away

Squad leader’s shooting flares in the air, it’s time for some action

Sex pistols loaded for crimes of passion

Yo, we take no prisoners, weekend warriors

Band of brothers, no suckers are gonna bother us

Tonight we fight dirty, sobriety’s the enemy

Joyriding lady-killer, girls keep surrendering

King’s Cross battleground, that’s where they’re sending me

Might never return, burn spliffs to remember me

All quiet on the inner western front

Drop zone is twenty-two steps from the club

The second that we get in it’s a god damn skirmish

Like we were diggers and these chickies were Turkish

Half-Vietnamese birds looking so perfect

Russian beauty got me harder than a Cold War turnip, yeah

She reached down as we started to dance and said

«Baby, I wanna give your peace/piece a chance»

Oh, oh, oh

Salute the soldiers of the city of sin

Check the canteen, top it off with straight gin

Notify your next of kin, we’re gunning 'em down

Flashbang them fans, got 'em stunned by the sound

A couple dapper gents, latex lies, line of defence

While our POWs now are climbing the fence

It’s their great escape

Breaking out of the cuffs of the man you hate

?

dance hall, Alexander the Great, my empire, 5 AM

Crumbling at the rate and the state that I’m in

I think I’m gonna need a medic, but it’s your shop

So hit the bar, lest we forget it

Hold up for a second, let the smoke settle

Incredible bell, yo, this girl deserves a medal

I’m a five-star general, I’m handing 'em out

Playing war games with raw dames is what I’m about

Oh, oh, oh, oh

(Man down, man down, Tongue’s MIA)

Yeah, with a girl that’s lookin' like MIA

Bring a friend, I say, you might need reinforcements

The party won’t stop 'till your dad kicks the door in

(But she said she was twenty-one) Number’s important

Age of conscription, I jump two stories

Should have been a paratrooper, life’s never boring

Fighting for our love at six in the morning

Looking for record time, you know it ain’t safe out there

You could get gunned down by this modern love warfare

So wear your protection, protect your heart

Cause you never know when

The end might start

Oh, oh, oh, come on

I got this energy (I said I got this energy)

Been building inside of me all damn week

(And then I need to break free)

If you don’t let me out I’m gon' break free

(I said I’m gonna break free)

My fuse is lit and I’m a blow it all away

(Blow it all away)

I said we blow it all away

We blow it all away

Man, we blow it all away, yeah, ha

I said we blow it all away

We blow it all away

We blow it all away

It’s Wargames, baby
