Lyrics Youth Brigade

Youth Brigade

Shoulda Stayed Home

I got my bags all packed and I’m ready and raring to go

I’ve never been away from home but there’s no time like

now

I’ve got dollars in my pocket and a wonderful

travelling attitude

It’s gonna be one big party and I’m the biggest party

dude

I don’t know much about any foreign lands

Just that we won the wars there and they think we’re

all in band

In a band (2x)

I’ve heard a few stories ‘bout the primitive life over

there

But I’m a man, I can take it and I’ve got money to

spare

I’m on a mission doing babes, I’m a macho no shit guy

And if the going gets tough, I’ll have to kick some ass

or die trying

Well, I’m a product of freedom and opportunity

I’m democracy in action, don’t fuck with me

No, no

We’re the red, white and blue crew

Don’t you forget: we protect you

We’ll make you need us, make you believe us, make you

understand (2x)

Now that I’m here I think these foreigners are a drag

They don’t all understand me and this gibberish they

speak is for fags

Everything’s expensive and I’m tired and I wanna go

home

Call me Yanqui imperialista, think we’re violent morons

Now I’ve done foreign lands

The food is shit and the chicks are snobs

They come to my country and they take our jobs, oh yea
