Troop Movements In The Ukraine

I read it in the paper
I saw it on the news
I heard it on the radio
They told me at work
Troop movements in the Ukraine
Missile silos in the sugar cane
No desire to die in an Asian swamp
Where they've got no proper toilets
Where they've got no modern shops
I've been learning Russian
And I'm visiting a Mosque
I'll build a steel house
No matter what it costs
Who wants to be in the military army
From force of habit persuasion by the law
I'd rather stay here and survive the war
By hiding in a grain elevator
If I don't mind missing out on the pleasures of looting
I don't mind missing out on death by shouting
I'll worry about motor car accidents
Cancer and the politics of rootage
