Lost in battle overseas   Next thing you know you're on your knees   If you trust in someone on the screen   Then you'll be lost and overseas      Always sharing the time on your hands   Think of who plans the future for you   There's nothing you can do      So you're in a uniform   It's your calm before the storm   Where is it taking us      One sign of the cross and you're let loose   How long is the stretch of this hanger's noose   You kill someone just for gain   We end up losing just the same      Always sharing your time with no plans   Think of who hands the future to you   There's nothing you can do      So you're in a uniform   And it's your calm before the storm   Where is it taking us?   Where is it taking us?      What does it do for you?   This one sign of the cross   Lost in battle overseas      The last thing we need to know is on our knees   If you trust in someone on the screen   Then you'll be lost and overseas      Always sharing time on your hands   Think of who plans the future for you   There's nothing you can do      So you're in a uniform   It's your calm before the storm   Where is it taking us?   Where is it taking us?      What does it do for you?   This one sign of the cross   We are lost in battle overseas
