War rugs in the hallway
|
Prayer rugs on the wall
|
Who's walkin' tall?
|
I should be kneelin'
|
|
[Bridge]
|
Soldier girl, oh, soldier boy
|
Tell me what to say
|
When I see you at Christmas leave
|
Tattooed and hazed
|
|
[Chorus]
|
Oh, we're all growin' up together
|
We're all makin' a mark on it
|
We're all damnin' the consequences
|
I want to understand
|
The soul you have in there
|
Young Egypt seized the moment
|
And brought that bastard down
|
You've got technology
|
And you've got archeology
|
We treated you like hunters
|
Until you kicked the goal
|
Now we're claimin' you for our team
|
'Cause what do we know?
|
|
Oh, we're all growin' up together
|
We're all watchin' the video
|
We're all damnin' the consequences
|
I want to understand
|
The soul you have in there
|
|
[Instrumental Interlude]
|
|
Soldier boy, oh, soldier girl
|
Tell me what to say
|
When I see you at Christmas leave
|
|
Oh, we're all growin' up together
|
We're all takin' it pass or fail
|
We're all damnin' the consequences
|
I want to understand
|
The soul it takes to stand
|
For something bigger than
|
Myself...
