Bringing Us Down

You're bringing us down

You're bringing us down

You're bringing us down

Hear the symphony in the five man band

Trying to sympathize but you can't understand

Set my mind to interbarometer

Move so slow from desk to dresser

It fell down without a sound

It took five years just to get down

Who put up the flag?

We haven't got a door yet

If they storm the fort tonight leave the pistol by your bed

We have jeopardized our situation

Disengage the ammunition

We are on a mercy mission

Bringing us down

Who put up the flag?

We haven't got a door yet

If they storm the fort tonight take the pills beside your bed

Jeopardized our situation

Disengage the ammunition

We are on a mercy mission

Take away the golden epaulettes

From the fallen dead cadets

Let's arrange it as their epitaph

Throw the bodies in the acid bath

Drag the sea coast and go for the gusto

The man with the plan said the foreman must go

If the chief don't fight let the chief go ahead

The squad and the scout will stay in bed

If the chief says jump I'll say "not I"

If the chief says jump I'll say "how high?"
