Hall & Oates - At Tension Lyrics

Hall & Oates Lyrics

"At Tension"

I'd like to join the army, don't want to join the war
I'd take my place in line hell, never go AWOL
We keep on marching forward, never will retreat
Don't let the enemy inside you, that's the beginning of defeat

All good soldiers stand to arms
All good soldiers try so hard
To follow orders, never asking why

I'm standing at tension
I'm standing at tension
I'm standing at tension
I'm standing at tension
So ill at ease with you
Afraid to make a move, yeah

Now a shaky finger on the trigger, ready, aim to please
Now how can such a little bullet drop big soldier to his knees?
There's no warning, only waiting when a Strangelove drops the bomb
All this fighting it can hurt you, but it's the little wounds that do the harm

All good soldiers stand to arms
One good solider tries so hard
He follows orders never questioning why
Never questioning why

I'm standing at tension
I'm standing at tension
I'm standing at tension
I'm standing at tension
So ill at ease with you
Afraid to make a move, yeah

All good soldiers stand to arms
All good soldiers try so hard
To follow orders, never asking why
They're never asking why

I'm standing at tension
I'm standing at tension
I'm standing at tension
I'm standing at tension
So ill at ease with you
Afraid to make a move, yeah
