[Verse 1]
Oh they say that you're a hero,
I'm telling you you're not.
You're just a puppy for more war,
A dumb civvy could not clock.
I'm not saying I’m not sorry cause being honest is not fun
But you're nothing more to me than a moron with a gun.
[Chorus]
Oh come on! Tell me, tell me I’m wrong.
Come on! Tell me, tell me I’m wrong.
Come on! Tell me, tell me,
Kick up the bucket and tell me oh, tell me, tell me I’m wrong.
[Verse 2]
So young Kurty took your leg,
What a vicious cooking border.
Bet you wished you'd stayed in bed
Instead of taking on those orders.
No I’ve not been in your boots but I think it’s safe to say;
We all make our own choices and killing's not ok, killing's not ok.
[Chorus]
Oh tell me, tell me I’m wrong.
Come on! Tell me, tell me I’m wrong.
Come on! Tell me, tell me.
Kick up the bucket and tell me oh.
Tell me, tell me I’m wrong.
[Bridge]
Oh now there's one thing I know,
It's the law of attraction.
A science of fate you can act on.
I know she's real cause I’ve seen her in action.
On the fickle and the frail,
The certain, strong and sick.
Though you'll never understand
Cause you're a stubborn son of a prick.
Stubborn son of a prick.
Come On!
[Chorus]
Tell me, tell me I’m wrong.
Come on! Tell me, tell me I’m wrong.
Come on! Tell me, tell me.
Kick up the bucket and tell me oh.
Tell me, tell me I’m wrong.
Tell me I'm wrong.
