Hallelujah, Dads and Mommies,

Buy yourselves some real red blooded fun.

If you want to make the grade,

And a fully automatic G.I. Gun.
D G D
Buy a gun for your son right away, Sir

Shake his hand like a man and let him play, Sir.

Let his little mind expand, Place a weapon in his hand,
A7 D
For the skills he learns today will someday pay, Sir.
D
Pound that kid into submission
A7
Buy him plastic warheads by the score,

Once he's got the taste of blood,
A7 D
Starting his own thermo-nuclear war.

Buy him khakis and fatigues,
A7
Give him callisthenics as a rule.

Once you've banished fear and dread,
A7 D
And send him off to military school.

Once he's grown to be a man,
A7
Then you'll see a crisis coming on.

Don't get worried, don't get nervous.
A7 D
Let him rise into the Pentagon.

At the Pentagon he'll rise.
A7
His reputation growing all the while.
D
With his picture on the wall,
A7 D
And press the firing buttons with a smile.
