I got a story to tell, now listen up real well
Pay attention this way to what I got to say
Took it to the street, rap to the people we meet
Now we´re rocking out hard to the Suicidal beat

Tried to deny our right, so we´re putting up a fight
Just doing our thang, they tried to call it a gang
Saw the way we look, that´s all that it took
That´s all she wrote, they had their scapegoat

Dressed down, homeboyz, minority-join the Army
We´re the few, we´re the proud, we like to jam it loud
The music we play won´t have it any other way
We´re armed to the bone with our music and our tone

Recruiting on the street fwith the sound of our beat
Growing larger every day and every time we play
Don´t need no college plan, we´re just a hard-rocking band
We like our music to please but we ain´t gonna appease
No pressure´s too much to make us change our touch

Hardcore, metal, the new wave
We´re not a gang-join the Army

Don´t be no fool, don´t let your prejudice rule
Don´t judge why your fear, judge us by your ear
Can´t believe every word of every story that you´ve heard
Just play the song, I know you´ll start to rock along

Well I don´t care ´bout the clothes you wear
It´s the size of your heart, not the length of your hair
Don´t make no difference to me, the color that you be
Black, white or brown, it´s all the same to me

Well if you still don´t believe you best get up and leave
Do what you must do, but this ain´t the place for you
You got no right but if you start a fight
We´ll be rockin´ your head but with our fists instead

I´ll fight it with the band, right down till the end
Ask anyone I´ve met, this ain´t no idle threat
Don´t flap no fit and it won´t come to this
Bust as for me, I´m down with the Army

New York, London, Venice
Why join a gang?
Join the Army

Suicidal rock-join the Army
Suicidal rock-join the Army
Suicidal rock-join the Army
Suicidal rock-join the Army
Suicidal rock-I want you to join the Army-S.T.
