Mother, father, i'm here in the zoo |
|
I can't come home 'cause i've grown up too soon |
|
I got my sentence |
|
I got my command |
|
They said they'd make me major if i met all their demands |
|
I could be a corp'ral into corp'ral punishment |
|
Or the gen'ral manager of a large establishment |
|
They pat some good boys on the back and put some to the rod |
|
But i never thought they'd put me in the |
|
Goon squad |
|
They've come to look you over and they're giving you the eye |
|
Goon squad |
|
They want you to come out to play |
|
You'd better say goodbye |
|
Some grow just like their dads |
|
And some grow up too tall |
|
Some go drinking with the lads |
|
Some don't grow up at all |
|
And you must find the proper place |
|
For everything you see |
|
But you'll never get to make a lampshade out of me |
|
I could join a chain of males or be the missing link |
|
Looking for a lucky girl to put me in the pink |
|
They pat some good boys on the back and put some to the rod |
|
But i never thought they'd put me in the |
|
Good squad .... |
|
Mother, father, i'm doing so well |
|
I'm making such progress now that you can hardly tell |
|
I fit in a little dedication |
|
With one eye on the clock |
|
They caught you under medication |
|
You could be in for a shock |
|
Thinking up the alibis that ev'ryone's forgotten |
|
Just another mummy's boy gone to rotten |
|
They pat some good boys on the back and put some to the rod |
|
But i never thought they'd put me in the |
|
Goon squad.... |
