Tin Soldiers (Live At The Brixton Academy) - Stiff Little Fingers[00:00:01]
He joined up to get a job[00:00:50]
And show he wasn't scared[00:01:09]
Swapped boy scout hat for army cap[00:01:13]
Hed finally be prepared[00:01:15]
At the age of 17 he was forced to choose[00:01:19]
Now at the age of 21 he's in Catch 22[00:01:25]
He joined up for just three years[00:01:40]
It seemed a small amount[00:01:42]
But they didn't tell him[00:01:46]
That the first two didn't count[00:01:48]
At the age of 17 how was he to know[00:01:51]
That at the age of 21 he'd still have one to go [00:01:58]
(Chorus:)[00:02:02]
Tin soldier[00:02:03]
He signed away his name[00:02:03]
Tin soldier[00:02:06]
No chance for cash or fame[00:02:07]
Tin soldier[00:02:09]
Now he knows the truth[00:02:10]
Tin soldier[00:02:12]
He signed away his youth[00:02:13]
He joined up cos Dad knew best[00:02:22]
To do right by his son[00:02:24]
Now he hates and counts the dates[00:02:28]
That mark time on square one[00:02:30]
At the age of 17 he did as he was told[00:02:34]
Now at the age of 21 tin still won't turn to gold[00:02:39]
(Chorus)[00:02:44]
Tin soldier[00:02:45]
He signed away his name[00:02:46]
Tin soldier[00:02:48]
No chance for cash or fame[00:02:49]
Tin soldier[00:02:51]
Now he knows the truth[00:02:52]
Tin soldier[00:02:54]
He signed away his youth[00:02:55]
If at the age of 17 you fall in line too soon[00:03:17]
At the age of 21 you'll still march to their tune[00:03:23]
Tin soldiers[00:03:51]
You sign away your name[00:03:52]
Tin soldier[00:03:54]
No chance for cash or fame[00:03:55]
Tin soldier[00:03:57]
You never see the truth[00:03:57]
Tin soldier[00:04:00]
You sign away your youth[00:04:01]
Tin soldier[00:04:03]
You go and join the queue[00:04:04]
Tin soldier[00:04:06]
Do what they want you to[00:04:07]
Tin soldier[00:04:09]
They take away your name[00:04:10]
Tin soldier[00:04:12]
They treat you all the same[00:04:13]
Sign away you life[00:04:27]
Sign away you life[00:04:33]
