Lyrics:

All the young kids learn to dance in the combat zone
Never dared to take a chance
Goin' home alone
 
But it gets so very cold
When it's late at night
 
Leave the foxholes on their own
Do you sleep well at night?
 
Bodycount...feeling hot
Bodycount...keeping warm
 
Friends are playing with danger
They don't know where it's found
With their casual letters
It's just another chain
 
You've lost the innocence
That you've never found
Standing in the DMZ
Don't get turned around
 
Body count...feeling hot
Body count...Vietnam
 
It's not the game..well, it's a scar
And they won't let you wear your khakis
And your eyesights anymore
 
You can go get shot to hell
They don't want you anymore because..
 
All the young kids learn to dance
In the combat zone
Never dare to take a chance
You're going home alone
Military metaphors
Are metaphors no more
 
Keeping up with protocol
You're dancin' off to war
 
Body count feeling hot
Body count  Vietnam
 
Do you sleep well at night?
 
Body Count...Vietnam
 
They can say what they want
But you have your doubts
 
It's not what you've lost
It's what your without
 
When I ran so far
And they just turned away
 
I doesn't bother me by the light of day
But at night...I hear your call
Late at night...I hear your call
 
I saw the mirror that you broke today
I saw the ceiling falling down your way
 
When they looked at you, you could turn away
 
You didn't bother then by the light of day...you'll stay
 
But at night...I hear your call
Late at night...I hear your call
 
You said that you could turn away
I knew that you going to stay
 
The walls are falling all around
They pinned you down onto the ground
But at night...I hear your call
Vietnam...I hear you call
