Slip Kid

One, two, three, four

Five, six, seven, eight

I've got my clipboard, text book

Lead me to the station

Yeah, I'm off to the civil war

I've got my kit bag, my heavy boots

I'm running in the rain

Gonna run till my feet are raw

Slip kid, slip kid, second generation

And I'm a soldier at thirteen

Slip kid, slip kid, realization

There's no easy way to be free

No easy way to be free

It's a hard, hard world

I left my doctor's prescription

Bungalow behind me I left the door ajar

I left my vacuum flask full of hot tea and sugar

Left the keys right in my car
