Wasted Life - 2002 Remaster

Lyrics

I could be a soldier
 Go out there and fight to save this land
 Be a people's soldier
 Paramilitary gun in hand
 I won't be no soldier
 I won't take no orders from no-one
 Stuff their fucking armies
 Killing isn't my idea of fun
 They wanna waste my life
 They wanna waste my time
 They wanna waste my life
 And they've stolen it away
 I could be a hero
 Live and die for their 'important' cause
 A united nation
 Or an independent state with laws
 And rules and regulations
 That merely cause disturbances and wars
 That is what I've got now
 All thanks to the freedom-seeking hordes
 They wanna waste my life
 They wanna waste my time
 They wanna waste my life
 And they've stolen it away
 I'm not gonna be taken in
 They said if I don't join I just can't win
 I've heard that story many times before
 And every time I threw it out the door
 Still they come up to me
 With a different name but the same old face
 I can see the connection
 With another time and a different place
 They ain't blonde-haired or blue-eyed
 But they think that they're the master race
 They're nothing but blind fascists
 Brought up to hate and given lives to waste
 They wanna waste my life
 They wanna waste my time
 They wanna waste my life
 And they've stolen it away
