Downtown
(Irv Levine-1968)

Well if the briefer speaks drawly
and your skin get's all crawly
you can bet you'll go, DOWNTOWN.
There's fear in your heart
and you're too scared to fart
Because you know you'll go. DOWNTOWN
You'll bomb a nit noy bridge in the heart of the city,
and get your ass shot off, oh it's really quite a pity.
Who logged this frag?
The SAMs are much brighter there
Your hair turns much whiter there, 'cause you are
Downtown, please don't send me there
Downtown, my pants always get peed there
Downtown, they're always waiting for me.

Now when I feel panic and I run to the clinic
And not have to go DOWNTOWN.
Get sick in a hurry and not have to worry
"Bout having to go, DOWNTOWN.
I tell the doc about my aches and how I feel so shitty,
He gives me lots of APCs and very little pity,
What should I do?
Should I take in stride or try to save up my hide but go
Downtown, where they will shoot me up,
Downtown, I'll throw my breakfast up
Downtown, they're always waiting at me.

Now, there is a solution and it won't take much goosing
to get me to go, DOWNTOWN.
Just load one right on me any old atom bomb me
and I'll take it Ho. DOWNTOWN.
Watch the shitheads run as I disintegrate their city,
Oh where did they all go? My that fireball's sure pretty,
Tough break there Ho.
Well your town is much thinner now, I'll go eat my dinner now
and not have to go again,
Downtown, 'cause it don't thrill me none
Downtown, where they will kill me some,
Downtown, their always waiting for me.
Downtown, Hanoi, Downtown.
