Dead-end streets and boulevards You threw in the towel, I broke your heart But there's a first time for everything Who would've thought you'd feel so cold And all these memories seem so old To think you were my everything Remember when we'd talk all night But time ain't easy on us, how can love die? I got so much shit to say But I can't help feeling like I'm camouflage Fortress around my heart You were mine just yesterday Now I have no idea who you are It's like camouflage But it's good to see you here again I don't wanna say goodbye But it's about half past ten And I have to catch my ride Riding alone on the I-95 And life's so fragile, it's like I could cry If that's the last time I'd see you again But I'll never tell you just how I felt You might just not care, and it might just not help What if the feelings just don't make no sense to you, you Remember when we'd talk all night But time ain't easy on us, how can love die? I got so much shit to say But I can't help feeling like I'm camouflage Fortress around my heart You were mine just yesterday Now I have no idea who you are It's like camouflage But it's good to see you here again I don't wanna say goodbye But it's about half past ten And I have to catch my ride I got so much shit to say But I can't help feeling like I'm camouflage Fortress around my heart You were mine just yesterday Now I have no idea who you are It's like camouflage But it's good to see you here again I don't wanna say goodbye But it's about half past ten And I have to catch my ride

Black men leaders cried for freedom White policemen shot them dead. The survivors get in prison Based on laws which no one understands. What can we do What can we say? Can it be law to kill your neighbours? What can we do What can we say? Can it be wrong to end it all? White man yawning in his armchair Smiled while watching white TV. Hundreds of people death or injured He never understands this hysteria. What can we do What can we say? ... Snipers sitting in police-cars Cautious stroking machine-guns. Never thought of black suppression They were paid for every hit they have. What can we do What can we say? ... What can we do What can we say? ...

I was a P.F.C. on a search patrol, huntin' Charlie down It was the jungle wars of '65 My weapon jammed and I got stuck way out 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 with a pair of friendly eyes Appeared there at my shoulder and said, "Wait" "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") 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, we fought all night, side by side, took our battle stance And I wondered how the bullets missed this man 'Cause they seemed to go right through him just 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 And I thought it was the end and we were had Then a bullet with my name on came buzzin' through a bush And that big marine, he just swat it with his hand (Just like it was a fly) 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 When he led me outta danger I saw my camp and waved goodbye He just winked at me from the jungle and then he was gone Then 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' the truth boy but this here is Camouflage And he's been right here since he passed away last night 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") 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 Woah-oh-oh-oh Camouflage Things are never quite the way they seem Woah-oh-oh-oh Camouflage This was an awfully big marine Woah-oh-oh-oh Camouflage Things are never quite the way they seem Woah-oh-oh-oh Camouflage This was an awfully big marine
