'Cause when you're running for the game against Alphonsus And you fell upon the ground and chipped your tooth Listen, that might really have surprised us To learn that you weren't really MX missile-proof Oh, I thought you were a life-sized paper doll Propped up in the hardware store You were propped up on the front lawn watching the parade Of those legionnaires with 2x4s As they're marching off to war Yeah, they're marching off to war Oh, they're marching...
