Yes it's true I am a young man
|
but I'm old enough to kill
|
I don't wanna kill nobody
|
but I must if you so will
|
And if I raise my hand in question
|
you just say that I'm a fool
|
Cause I got the gall to ask you
|
Can you maybe change the rules
|
can you stand and call me upstart
|
Ask what answer can I find, I ain't sayin' I'm a genius
|
2+2 is on my mind
|
|
Well I knew a guy in high school
|
just an average friendly guy
|
And he had himself a girlfriend
|
and you made them say goodbye
|
Now he's buried in the mud
|
over foreign jungle land
|
And his girl just sits and cries
|
she just doesn't understand
|
So you say he died for freedom
|
well if he died to save your lies
|
Go ahead and call me yellow
|
2+2 is on my mind
|
|
All I know is that I'm young and your rules they are old
|
If I've got to kill to live
|
then there's something left untold
|
I'm no statesman I'm no general
|
I'm no kid I'll never be
|
It's the rules not the soldier
|
that I find the real enemy
|
|
I'm no prophet I'm no rebel
|
I'm just asking you why
|
I just want a simple answer
|
why it is I 've got to die
|
I'm a simple minded guy
|
2+2 is on my mind
|
