The Army's on ecstasy so they say
I read all about it in USA Today
They stepped up urine testing to make it go away
'Cause it's hard to kill the enemy on ol' MDMA

Said the King of contradiction
To the Queen of mystery
The Prince of paradox,
He dogs me like a flea
So I'll set my troops upon him
And bring him to his knees
When all is said and done
I'll pick a fight with the Chinese
The Queen she stared at him long and hard
And then she softly said
I'll rub you down with linseed oil
To ease your throbbing head
She slipped a note in an apricot
And threw it to the whores
The jester read the words
Something wicked this way roars

The Army's on ecstasy so they say
I read all about it in USAToday
They stepped up urine testing to make it go away
'Cause it's hard to kill the enemy on ol' MDMA

The price they put upon the heads
Of folks with poignant views
Would be better spent on the children
Without shoes
And when the King condoned
The actions of the liar
He forgot to weight the awesom power
Of the village crier

The Army's on ecstasy so they say
I read all about it in USAToday
They stepped up urine testing to make it go away
'Cause it's hard to kill the enemy on ol' MDMA

The Army's on ecstasy so they say
I read all about it in USAToday
[in Japanese: The Army's on ecstasy so they say
I read all about it in USAToday
They stepped up urine testing to make it go away
'Cause it's hard to kill the enemy on ol' MDMA]

    This is not about spraying the enemy with MDMA because of the urine testing reference.
