[Verse:]
|
There's dirty work to be done in the army
|
And it's not much fun
|
It's the kind of work that's done
|
Without the aid of a gun
|
The boys who work with the cooks in the kitchen
|
Holler out for peace
|
For they have to do the dirty work
|
And they're called the Kitchen Police
|
|
[Refrain:]
|
Poor little me
|
I'm a K.P.
|
I scrub the mess hall
|
Upon bended knee
|
Against my wishes
|
I wash the dishes
|
To make this wide world safe for Democracy
|
