Don't start me talking, I could talk all night
  My mind goes sleepwalking while I'm putting the world to rights
  Called careers information, have you got yourself an occupation?
  
  Oliver's army is here to stay
  Oliver's army is on their way
  And I would rather be anywhere else but here today
  
  There was a checkpoint Charlie, he didn't crack a smile
  But it's no laughing party when you've been on the murder mile
  Only takes one itchy trigger
  One more widow, one less white n*gger
  
  Oliver's army is here to stay
  Oliver's army is on their way
  And I would rather be anywhere else but here today
  
  Hong Kong is up for grabs, London is full of Arabs
  You could be in Palestine, overrun by the Chinese line
  With the boys from the Mersey and the Thames and the Tyne
  
  But there's no danger, it's a professional career
  Though it could be arranged with just a word in Mr Churchill's ear
  If you're out of luck and out of work
  We could send you to Johannesburg
  
  Oliver's army is here to stay
  Oliver's army is on their way
  And I would rather be anywhere else but here today (x4)
