Boot Cramp Without Due Cause
Be loyal to your captain, soldier: he was once a man like you
Underneath the arches on the road to Kathmandu
Fighting for his motherland, and charging at his foes
With his ornamental nose
And mud between his toes
For once, beyond the Hellespont, with assymmetric arquebus
He slaughtered all the enemy, and bravely rescued all of us
Fighting for his fatherland, and flailing with his flag
While drawing on a fag
And bolking in his bag
At Jericho, he stood his ground: his scimitar in hand
His firm resolve as walls collapsed was nothing less than grand
Fighting for his people, he was hailed a valiant knight
With no one left in sight
Keeping vigil through the night
