lyrics

Got a tie
Tie it ‘round my neck
Check my shirt
Can’t find a speck
Scan my face
‘fore I hit the deck
This is how
I score a paycheck

Whatcha want?
To party all nite
Whatcha got?
No party in sight
[Say]
Whatcha need?
Gotta hang tight
Gotta hang tight
Gotta hang tight

Gotta get out of this uniform
Seems I had it on since I was born
Got holes in the knees and is tattered and torn
Gotta get out
Gotta get out

Got a shirt
With little blue stripes
Can’t help that
They go with my wipes
Can’t complain
I’ve had worst gripes
I can fit in
With the gung-ho types

Got a badge
But they got my name wrong
But I don’t mind
Just gettin’ along
Not gonna quit
Fit in with the throng
They won’t know
As long as I’m strong

Whatcha want?
To party all nite
Whatcha got?
No party in sight
[Say]
Whatcha need?
Gotta hang tight
Gotta hang tight
Gotta hang tight

Gotta get out of this uniform
Seems I had it on since I was born
Got holes in the knees and is tattered and torn
Gotta get out
Gotta get out

This ain’t me
But I wear the suit
Don’t care too much
I still get to shoot
Not gonna stop
Do it for the loot
Just don’t care
If I get the boot

Whatcha want?
To fight the good fight
Whatcha got?
Watch the clock all night
[Say]
Whatcha need?
Gotta hang tight
Gotta hang tight
Gotta hang tight

Gotta hang tight
Gotta hang tight

Gotta hang tight
Gotta hang tight
Gotta hang tight

Gotta get out of this uniform
Seems I had it on since I was born
Got holes in the knees and is tattered and torn
Gotta get out
Gotta get out

Gotta get out of this uniform
Seems I had it on since I was born
Got holes in the knees and is tattered and torn
Gotta get out
Gotta get out
