[Maybebop - Drive a tank songtext lyrics]
Back in school I was a real hot stud
With muscles XXL
But the others thought my name was mud
And made my school days hell
Only CND or Greenpeace would
Impress these infidels
So I kept my temper hidden very well
I demonstrated and remonstrated
For human rights I took a stand
Yet I wanted to drive a tank
A big green army tank
The real thing, no child's prank
Just wanted to drive a tank
After school I wanted to
Have fun and kick some ass
But again restraint came over me
I was cool at recess
I refused to serve, declined in style
"The army makes me scream
The league of nations is my
One and only dream" soon I got a real deal:
I brought the meals on wheels
But that was dumb and dull and stank
I just wanted to drive a tank
A big green army tank
The real thing, no child’s prank
Now and then when I was on tour
I was quite the entrepreneur
I put something in the meat pies
And they all were hospitalised
After that I became a nurse
Geriatrics, that was much worse
Which is when I've broken the law
'cause I bought a power saw
Sometimes I feel lonely, but for sure
I’m not a ladies' man
I dream of someone who will say to me: "I can
Drive a tank!" for once just drive a tank
Then shit will hit the fan drive a tank
At last just drive a tank
Then shit will hit the fan
With muscles XXL
But the others thought my name was mud
And made my school days hell
Only CND or Greenpeace would
Impress these infidels
So I kept my temper hidden very well
I demonstrated and remonstrated
For human rights I took a stand
Yet I wanted to drive a tank
A big green army tank
The real thing, no child's prank
Just wanted to drive a tank
After school I wanted to
Have fun and kick some ass
But again restraint came over me
I was cool at recess
I refused to serve, declined in style
"The army makes me scream
The league of nations is my
One and only dream" soon I got a real deal:
I brought the meals on wheels
But that was dumb and dull and stank
I just wanted to drive a tank
A big green army tank
The real thing, no child’s prank
Now and then when I was on tour
I was quite the entrepreneur
I put something in the meat pies
And they all were hospitalised
After that I became a nurse
Geriatrics, that was much worse
Which is when I've broken the law
'cause I bought a power saw
Sometimes I feel lonely, but for sure
I’m not a ladies' man
I dream of someone who will say to me: "I can
Drive a tank!" for once just drive a tank
Then shit will hit the fan drive a tank
At last just drive a tank
Then shit will hit the fan
