In My Head |
 |
|
I dream that I am young again.
Silly damn... dream!
ChiCom grenades poppin fuses
and sticks turnin' in the air... like a damn flare!
I'm just Diddy-Boppin in my old head,
'bout an old Hawk made of wood and steel.
... and a whetstone curved into it... so sharp,
and the need of a curve under the head,
and a hollow steel head knocker on the back!
Silence!
No one remembers what we said.
No one remembers
the Vietnam Tomahawk!
I Do! |
