Army dreamers. "Mammy s hero." "B.F.P.O." "Mammy s hero." Our little army boy Is coming home from B.F.P.O. I ve a bunch of purple flowers To decorate a mammy s hero. Mourning in the aerodrome, The weather warmer, he is colder. Four men in uniform To carry home my little soldier. "What could he do? Should have been a rock star." But he didn t have the money for a guitar. "What could he do? Should have been a politician." But he never had a proper education. "What could he do? Should have been a father." But he never even made it to his twenties. What a waste -- Army dreamers. Ooh, what a waste of Army dreamers. Tears o er a tin box. Oh, Jesus Christ, he wasn t to know, Like a chicken with a fox, He couldn t win the war with ego.Give the kid the pick of pips, And give him all your stripes and ribbons. Now he s sitting in his hole, He might as well have buttons and bows. "What could he do? Should have been a rock star." But he didn t have the money for a guitar. "What could he do? Should have been a politician." But he never had a proper education. "What could he do? Should have been a father." But he never even made it to his twenties. What a waste -- Army dreamers. Ooh, what a waste of Army dreamers. Ooh, what a waste of all that Army dreamers, Army dreamers, Army dreamers, oh... ("B.F.P.O.") Did-n-did-n-did-n-dum... Army dreamers. Did-n-did-n-did-n-dum... ("Mammy s hero.") ("B.F.P.O.") Army Dreamers. ("Mammy s hero.") ("B.F.P.O.") No harm heroes. ("Mammy s hero.") ("B.F.P.O.") Army dreamers. ("Mammy s hero.") ("B.F.P.O.") No harm heroes.
