Body Count Lyrics - Queen

(berry/buck/mills/stipe) 

All the young kids learn to dance in the combat zone 

Never dared to take a chance 

Goin' home alone 

But it gets so fucky cold 

When it's late at night 

Leave the foxholes on their own 

Do you sleep well at night? 

Body count, feeling hot 

Body count, keeping warm 

Friends are playing with danger 

They don't know where it's found 

With their casual letters 

It's just another chain

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

You've lost the innocence 

That you've never found 

Standing in the dmz 

Don't get turned around 

(chorus) 

Body count, feeling hot 

Body count, vietnam 

It's not the game, it's a scar 

And they won't let you wear your khakis 

And your izods anymore 

You can go get shot to hell 

They don't want you anymore because 

All the young kids learn to dance in the combat zone 

Never dare to take a chance 

You're going home alone 

Military metaphors 

Are metaphors no more 

Keeping up with protocol 

You're dancin' off to war 

(repeat chorus) 

Do you sleep well at night? 

Body count, vietnam 

They can say what they want 

But you have your doubts 

It's not what you've lost 

It's what your without 

When I ran so far 

And they just turned away 

I doesn't bother me by the light of day 

But at night, I hear your call 

Late at night, I hear your call 

I saw the mirror that you broke today 

I saw the ceiling falling down your way 

When they looked at you, you could turn away 

You didn't bother then by the light of day, you'll stay 

But at night, I hear your call 

Late at night, I hear your call 

You said that you could turn away 

I knew that you going to stay 

The walls are falling all around 

They pinned you down onto the ground 

But at night, I hear your call 

Vietnam, I hear you call
