Elvis Costello - Oliver's Army Lyrics

Font:

Align:

Dont start me talking

I could talk all night

My mind goes sleepwalking

While Im putting the world to right

Called careers information

Have you got yourself an occupation?

Olivers army is here to stay

Olivers army are on their way

And I would rather be anywhere else

But here today

There was a checkpoint charlie

He didnt crack a smile

But its no laughing party

When youve been on the murder mile

Only takes one itchy trigger

One more widow, one less white nigger

(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 theres no danger

Its a professional career

Though it could be arranged

With just a word in mr. churchills ear

If youre out of luck or out of work

We could send you to johannesburg

(chorus)
