[00:02.018]	Halleluiah, dads and mommies, cowboys, rebles, yanks and commies,
[00:05.707]	buy yourselves some real red-blooded fun.
[00:08.826]	If you want to make the grade,
[00:11.704]	you've got to have a hand grenade,
[00:13.521]	and a fully automatic G.I. gun (改进的M1911手枪).
[00:16.149]	So buy a gun for your son right away, sir.
[00:20.352]	Shake his hand like a man and let him play, sir.
[00:24.544]	Let his little mind expand, place a weapon in his hand.
[00:28.993]	For the skills he learns today will someday pay, sir.
[00:32.398]	Pound that kid into submission,
[00:35.814]	till he's mastered nuclear fission.
[00:37.389]	Buy him plastic warheads by the store.
[00:40.549]	Once he's got the taste of blood,
[00:43.159]	He's gonna sneak up on his buddies,
[00:45.519]	starting his own thermo-nuclear war.
[00:48.111]	So buy a gun for your son right away, sir.
[00:52.856]	Shake his hand like a man and let him play, sir.
[00:56.222]	Let his little mind expand, place a weapon in his hand.
[01:00.672]	For the skills he learns today will someday pay, sir.
[01:04.872]	Buy him khakis and fartigues,
[01:07.487]	and sign him up in little leagues,
[01:09.308]	and give him calisthenics as a rule.
[01:12.185]	Once you've banished fear and dread,
[01:15.335]	then pat his seven-year-old head,
[01:17.436]	and send him off to military school.
[01:20.576]	So buy a gun for your son right away, sir.
[01:24.264]	Shake his hand like a man and let him play, sir.
[01:27.927]	Let his little mind expand, place a weapon in his hand.
[01:32.360]	For the skills he learns today will someday pay, sir.
[01:36.825]	Once he's grown to be a man,
[01:38.918]	he might get tired of blasting granny,
[01:41.004]	then you'll see a cisis coming on.
[01:43.600]	Don't get worried, don't get nervous.
[01:46.993]	Send that kid into service,
[01:49.086]	let him rise into the Pentagon （本意五边形）.
[01:51.956]	At the Pentagon he'll rise.
[01:55.111]	The president he will advice.
[01:57.210]	His reputation growing all the while.
[02:01.004]	With your picture on the wall,
[02:02.810]	he'll get that long-awaited call,
[02:04.644]	and press the firing buttons with a smile.
[02:08.041]	So buy a gun for your son right away, sir.
[02:12.227]	Shake his hand like a man and let him play, sir.
[02:16.054]	Let his little mind expand, place a weapon in his hand.
