Don't start me talking
I could talk all night
My mind goes sleepwalking

While I'm putting the world to right
Called careers information
Have you got yourself an occupation?


[Chorus:]
Oliver's army is here to stay

Oliver's army are on their way
And I would rather be anywhere else
But 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 !@$@


[Chorus]

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


[Chorus]
