Title: Army
Artist: Ben Folds Five
Album: Unauthorized Biography Of Rein

Well i thought about the army

Dad said, son you're fucking high

And i thought, yeah there's a first for everything

So i took my old man's advice

Three sad semesters

It was only 15 grand spent in bed

I thought about the army

I dropped out and joined a band instead



Grew a moustache and a mullet

Got a job at chick-fil-a

Citing artistic differences

The band broke up in may

And in june reformed without me

And they'd got a different name

I nuked another grandma's apple pie

And hung my head in shame



Been thinking a lot today

Been thinking a lot today



Oh, i think i'll write a screenplay

Oh, i think i'll take it to la

Oh, i think i'll get it done yesterday



In this time of introspection

On the eve of my election

I say to my reflection

God please spare me more rejection

'cause my peers they criticize me

And my ex-wives all despise me

Try to put it all behind me

But my redneck past is nipping at my heels



I've been thinking a lot today

I've been thinking a lot today

I've been thinking a lot today

I thought about the army...
