Private Lily

My name is Lily

I'm 19 years old

No money to study,

No boyfriend,

I'm kind of bored

I went to the trade fair,

To find a job

There I found a few guys from the army

They told me that I was smart and pretty

I'm goin' to war I'm goin' to war, I'm goin' to war, I'm goin' to war, I'm goin' to war

She's goin' to war, she's goin' to war, she's goin' to war, she's goin' to war, she's goin' to war

My name is Lily

They told me that I could make it

They'll pay for my studies,

So I will graduate

I went to the parking lot

To meet with my recruiters

I leave next week

Assigned out for four years

Six more months and I'll be ready

To drive machines and tow M16s

My name is Lily

I'm 19 years old

On my way to the black zones

Gonna do what I am told

I'm goin' to war, I'm goin' to war, I'm goin' to war, I'm goin' to war, I'm goin' to war

She's goin' to war, she's goin' to war, she's goin' to war, she's goin' to war, she's goin' to war

And she's too young

She's goin' to war, she's goin' to war, she's goin' to war, she's goin' to war, she's goin' to war
