The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
What the hell, I'll try that
Buyin' into this military crap
Bluejackets', bluejackets', bluejackets'
Memory's an enemy
Forget? You goddamn bet!
Bluejackets', bluejackets', bluejackets'
Let the camp boot the fuck out of me
Knocked me clear right into next week
Bluejackets, bluejackets, bluejackets
There ya go, pogo
From spits and fits to slams and kicks
Bluejackets', bluejackets', bluejackets'
There's a flower
A purple flower pressed there
There's a flower
Next to the page on
Close order drill!
Whirling dervish with my fists in the air
I don't fuckin' even care
Bluejackets', bluejackets', bluejackets'
Don't think, don't blink
The drill, the drill - it fills and fills
Bluejackets', bluejackets', bluejackets',bluejackets',
bluejackets', bluejackets', bluejackets'
The bluejackets' manual
