I don't care much for americans, (well don't get me wrong but I don't like that country.. big shot,that everything happens because they made it...they see themselves as rulers of the "free" world, and that i don't like...)
There is something that i dislike and possibly hate more than anything... in this case, the americans fighting in Vietnam were criticised and then when returning home they were receive as assassins and villains.. I hate it.. their kin were fighting for something that they were obliged and people were mean to them.. I hate them! As I said before i don't like america but they have changed since 11/09.. I like their attitude now for soldiers.. they receive them as heroes.. if you want to criticise, critiscise the president or the generals, never the man who are actually fighting... I love this music and I love the theme... So here it is.. This is just an excercpt..

I was a p.f.c. on a search patrol, huntin' charlie down
It was in the jungle wars of '65
My weapon jammed and i got stuck way out and all alone
And i could hear the enemy movin' in close outside
Just then i heard a twig snap and i grabbed my empty gun
And i dug in scared while i counted down my fate
And then a big marine¨c¨ca giant, with a pair of friendly eyes¨c¨c
Appeared there at my shoulder and said "wait."
When he came in close beside me, he said "don't worry, son, i'm here¨c¨c
If charlie wants to tangle now, he'll have two to dodge"
I said, "well, thanks a lot!" i told him my name and asked him his
And he said "the boys just call me camouflage"
Chorus:
Woah-oh-oh-oh, camouflage
Things are never quite the way they seem
Woah-oh-oh-oh, camouflage
I was awfully glad to see this big marine
Well, i was gonna ask him where he came from, when we heard the bullets fly
Comin' through the brush, and all around our ears
It was then i saw this big marine light a fire in his eye
And it was strange, but suddenly, i forgot my fears
Well, we fought all night, side by side, we took our battle stance
And i wondered how the bullets missed this man
'cause they seemed to go right through him¨c¨cjust as if he wasn't there
And in the mornin' we both took a chance and ran
And it was near the riverbank when the ambush came on top of us
And i thought it was the end, and we were had
Then a bullet with my name on it came buzzin' through a bush
And that big marine, he just swat it with his hand
Just like it was a fly...
Chorus:
Woah-oh-oh-oh, camouflage
Things are never quite the way they seem
Woah-oh-oh-oh, camouflage
This was an awfully strange (big) marine
{spoken}
And i knew there was somethin' weird about him,
'cause when i turned around,
He was pullin' a big palm tree up outta the ground
And swattin' those charlies with it from here to kingdom come
When he led me outta danger i saw my camp and waved goodbye
He just winked at me from the jungle and then was gone
When i got back to my h.q., i told 'em about my night
And the battle i'd spent with a big marine named camouflage
When i said his name, the soldier gulped, and a medic took my arm
And led me to a green tent on the right
He said "you may be tellin' true, boy, but this here is camouflage
And he's been right here since he passed away last night
In fact, he's been here all week long...
But before he went, he said semper fi, and said his only wish
Was to save a young marine caught in a barrage
So here, take his dog tag, son, i know he'd want you to have it now"
And we both said a prayer for a big marine named camouflage
Chorus repeat
So next time you're in a jungle fight, and you feel a presence near
Or hear a voice that in your mind will lodge
Just be thankful that you're not alone¨c¨cyou've got some company
From a big marine the boys call camouflage
Chorus repeat x2
Hup, hey-ho, hey, left... left...
Woah, woah, camouflage
Hey, hey-ho, ho, left... left...
Woah, woah, camouflage
Repeat endlessly until fade...
