Back in the Sand
When you turn 18 they're gonna kick you out
You'll get a couple months notice in case you wanna leave town
And you'll sign your name on the dotted line
And swear you wanna serve your country but it's a lie
Cause you ain't got nowhere to go
And you say well there ain't no jobs back home
Your baby tries to understand
Cause she knows you may not come back from the sand
When the bombs go off you don't blink an eye
It's not like you can leave until you bide your time
And with nothing much to lose you really do stand out
All the city kids start running when you come around
And you ain't got nowhere to go
And you say that you gave up long ago
Your baby tries to understand
Cause she knows you may not come back from the sand
You ain't got nowhere to go
And you say that you gave up long ago
Your baby tries to understand
Cause she knows you may not come back from the sand
And this isn't quite exactly what you planned
Just another day
Just another day
Just another day until you're back in the sand
You'll get a couple months notice in case you wanna leave town
And you'll sign your name on the dotted line
And swear you wanna serve your country but it's a lie
Cause you ain't got nowhere to go
And you say well there ain't no jobs back home
Your baby tries to understand
Cause she knows you may not come back from the sand
When the bombs go off you don't blink an eye
It's not like you can leave until you bide your time
And with nothing much to lose you really do stand out
All the city kids start running when you come around
And you ain't got nowhere to go
And you say that you gave up long ago
Your baby tries to understand
Cause she knows you may not come back from the sand
You ain't got nowhere to go
And you say that you gave up long ago
Your baby tries to understand
Cause she knows you may not come back from the sand
And this isn't quite exactly what you planned
Just another day
Just another day
Just another day until you're back in the sand
