They’ll push the army up our nose.

It’s bad enough troops in our streets,

and they’re not there for meet-and-greets,

but now we have to wear their duds,

and flounce around like Elmer Fudds?

There’s little charm in army fashions,

’bout as tasty as C-rations.

Olive green and basic black,

fresh off Uncle Sam’s clothes rack.

“Oh, Sarge, you look so fine to me.

What is that look called, infantry ?”

We know that rugged men like camo.

Gives them pockets for their ammo.

In certain states, accessories,

like M-15’s are bound to please.

But here comes a fashion warnin’,

can’t tell civvies from the sworn-in.

Countries become very scary

when they turn all military.

People, please consider class.

And shove that “grunt style” up their ass.
