The Bluejackets’ Manual Lyrics

What the hell, I'll try that
Buying into this military crap
Bluejackets, bluejackets, bluejackets
Memory's an enemy
Forget? You goddamn bet!
Bluejackets, bluejackets, bluejackets

Let the camp beat the fuck out of me
Knocked me clear right into next week!
Bluejackets, bluejackets, bluejackets
There ya go - pogo
From spits and fits to slams and kicks!
Bluejackets, bluejackets, bluejackets

Hey, there's a flower
A purple flower pressed there
There's a flower
Next to the page on...
CLOSE ORDER DRILL!!

Whirling dervish with my fists in the air
I don't fuckin' even care!
Bluejackets, bluejackets, bluejackets
Don't think, don't blink
The drill, the drill, it fills and fills
Bluejackets, bluejackets
Bluejackets, bluejackets
Bluejackets, bluejackets
Bluejackets, the bluejackets' manual!
