Ben Folds - Army

Army
Ben Folds

Well I thought about the army
Dad said, son you're fucking high
So I took my old man's advice
And I thought, yeah there's a first for everything
Three sad semesters
It was only fifteeen grand spent in bed
I dropped out and joined a band instead
I thought about the army

Grew a moustache and a mullet
Got a job at ChickAnd in June reformed without me
Citing artistic differences
The band broke up in May
I nuked another grandma's apple pie
And they'd got a different name
Oh
And hung my head in shame

I've been thinking a lot today

Oh, I think I'll write a screenplay
Oh, I think I'll take it to LA
I've been thinking a lot today
Oh, I think I'll get it done yesterday
Aw, Shit

On the eve of my election
In this time of introspection
God, please spare me more rejection
I say to my reflection
'Cause my peers they criticize me
And my ex
But my redneck past is nipping at my heels
Try to put it all behind me
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...
