I'm on guard again but unprepared to fend for myself in a battle 
You wont tell me why the shrubbery moves 
Or why there always has to be subterfusion 
You wont even say "at ease" 
After waging a costly siege 
When a potentate ain't so potent in his state he summons help fast 
Unilaterally 
I withdraw 
What was peace is now a grand coup d'etat 
The Purple 
Heart for valour please 
And no heart for you 
Denise Reinforcements, reinforcements 
I could use a strong rear guard 
Reinforcements, reinforcements 
First the left flank, then the right 
I'd sooner work the 
PX tonight 
Spoken: You intercept my 
S.O.S in order that no news of my distress will ever reach the homefront and about my camouflage, well, it didn't work on you ... in fact most things they tell recruits never seem to do 
Raise my rank if 
I should last another night so tortuous 
Reinforcements, reinforcements 
I don't want a tete-a-tete 
Reinforcements, reinforcements 
Let's reach accord, and ink a pact 
Then, please dismiss your regiment
