Army ads looked cool-I signed right up   Besides, it was the only way could find a job   Great place to start and see the world   Womanize at discos   And fake going nuts   To scam infirmary drugs      So send in the clowns   The NATO circus is here to protect you   Your choice must be ours   Yankee corruption   Or the big bad Soviet threat      Don't you feel secure   Sending our Top Guns guard your sky   Flying their fighter planes upside down   Stoned out of their minds      For a real hot time   How 'bout an air show crash?   Or a G.I. riding a stolen tank   Through downtown Manhattan   And off the riverbank   Where he drowns      Fall in with the clowns   Remember NATO is here to protect you   With nuclear bombs   That come to visit   And decided to stay      Attack!   Attack!   Of the peacekeepers   Attack!      The charge of the joke brigade   In charge   We can blow up the world   More times than you      We'll show 'em   We'll show 'em   With radioactive subs      We'll show 'em   We'll show 'em   With missiles in your back yard      Guarded   By soldiers   On acid during night watch   And generals who care only   For fat pensions and bribes      If that don't scare the commies nothing will   Cept maybe our Bradley tanks tripping over themselves   Both powers have one goal in common   to keep Germany divided   Never strong enough to start another world war      Occupied by the clowns   Is it really you NATO is here to protect?   With Berlin type walls   When they came to visit   We all decided to stay
