I tried to go into the Marines right before we invaded Iraq. “I’d like to go into infantry? I told the guy at the recruitment place, he said fantastic. So I completed all of the preliminary applications, did an interview, I was set. Then they asked me, “Oh by the way, do you have any tats?? I said, “Yea, I got about 30 of ‘em.? They told me I had too many tats to be let into the Marine corp or any armed forces in the U.S.; I forget what the limit was?7 I think. Anyways they tried to pull some strings and talk to some people for me because they knew that I really wanted to go in, but none of it worked. All through the Iraq war I was thinking, “Those ****ers, I could have been over there killing SO many Iraqi’s for free!? They have no idea how dedicated I would have been, nor how much I would have been in sheer ecstasy every time they sent me out into battle. Damnit.
Back to topic. I give you these song lyrics:
In The Navy
Artist: The Village People
Where can you find pleasure, search the world for treasure,
learn science, technology?
Where can you begin to make your dreams all come true
on the land or on the sea?
Where can you learn to fly, play in sports or skindive,
study oceanography?
Sign up for the big band or sit in the grand stand
when your team and others meet.
In the Navy, yes, you can sail the seven seas.
In the Navy, yes, you can put your mind at ease.
In the Navy, come on now people, make a stand.
In the Navy, can't you see we need a hand.
In the Navy, come on, protect the motherland.
In the Navy, come on and join your fellow, man.
In the Navy, come on, people, and make a stand.
In the Navy, in the Navy.
They want you! They want you! They want you as a new recruit!
If you like adventure don't you wait to enter
the recruiting office fast.
Don't you hesitate, there is no need to wait;
they're signing up new seamen fast.
Maybe you are too young to join up today
but don't you worry 'bout the thing
for I'm sure there will be always the good Navy
protecting the land and sea.
In the Navy...
They want you! They want you! They want you as a new recruit!
They want you! They want you! They want you as a new recruit!
..But..but..but I'm afraid of water!
..hey..hey..look, men...
I get seasick even watching it on the TV!
They want You! - Oh my goodness!
They want you! - What am I gonna do in a submarine?
They want you! They want you!
In the Navy.
