Lyrics
DIE OR DANCE
Just give me a gun & a push in the back
And tell me where to go, tell me who to get even with
Feed me with your reason, its for the greater cause
Mistake me with your politics, your politician claws
I am a solider now, sent to war
I stand on the front line, I have everything to fight for
I have a wife and child a family to provide for
I'm sent here to kill, destroy and for my country to die
Ask not what your country can do for you
But what you can do for your country
Question not the reason behind what I ask you to do
You've just got to follow me
You are a solider now, your no longer a man
You're a killing machine
Go and fight and kill for whats right
The survival of the American dream
With bullets flying past my head
Each one I send back & I know something's dead
You put me in, this game of chance
Its die or dance boy, dance boy dance
