lyrics

Conscript Me
I’ll plant no trees

You keep my life in your pocket
Plug me into war like a socket
I’m drawn in a lottery ticket
Then i'm taking cover in thicket

I’ll keep the wolves from your door
I hear their howling though I don’t know what for

Conscript me
I’ll plant no trees
Conscript me
I’m owned by thee

I’m bow legged and I’m already armed
Say goodbye to the life on the farm
Your regime I have to be a part of
So take heart, take heart.

I’ll keep the wolves from your door
I hear their howling but I don’t know what for
And I’ll jump right in with both of my feet
Coz I love my mum and there’s no anger in me

I don’t believe
You can make me
But yeah you’ll try
Yeah you’ll try
Maybe well die together
I didn’t think so
I didn’t think so
You just made me go

Conscript me
I’ll plant no trees
Conscript me
I’m owned by thee
