Gang Of Four - I Love A Man In A Uniform Lyrics






Time with my girl I spent it well
I had to be strong for my woman
(You must be joking, oh man you must be joking)
She needed to be protected

The good life was so elusive
Handouts, they got me down
I had to regain my self-respect
So I got into camouflage

The girls they love to see you shoot

I love a man in a uniform
I love a man in a uniform
I love a man in a uniform
I love a man in a uniform

To have ambitions was my ambition
But I had nothing to show for my dreams
Time with my girl I spent it well
(You must be joking, oh man you must be joking)

The good life was so elusive
Handouts, they got me down
I had to regain my confidence
So I got into camouflage

The girls they love to see you shoot

I love a man in a uniform
I love a man in a uniform
I love a man in a uniform
I love a man in a uniform

I need an order
(Shoot, shoot)
I need an order
(Shoot, shoot)
I need an order
(Shoot, shoot)
I need an order
(Shoot, shoot)

To have ambition
Was my ambition
Time with my girl I spent it well
(You must be joking, oh man you must be joking)

The girls they love to see you shoot
The girls they love to see you shoot

I love a man in a uniform
I love a man in a uniform
(They love to see you shoot)
I love a man in a uniform

The girls they love to see you shoot
I love a man in a uniform
(They love to see you shoot)

The girls they love to see you shoot
I love a man in a uniform
(They love a... they love a... they love a...)
(They love to see you shoot)

The girls they love to see you shoot
(Bang bang you're dead)
I love a man in a uniform
(They love a... they love a... they love a... bang bang)
(They love to see you shoot)

The girls they love to see you shoot
I love a man in a uniform
(They love a... they love a... they love a... bang bang)
(They love to see you shoot)

The girls they love to see you shoot
(Bang bang you're dead)
I love a man in a uniform
(They love a... they love a... they love a... bang bang)
(They love to see you shoot)

The girls they love to see you shoot
(Bang bang you're dead)
(They love a... they love a... they love a...)
(I love a man in a uniform)

  1. N.... S....

    Still loling at the guy who commented and thinks this song,
    doesn't need the female backing singers. WTF?!

  2. S.... M....

    There 1st 2 albums are so much better its criminal, Get rid of the female backing vox for a start which is too repetitive & replace with analog synth & found fx or even cello & i might have thought it was forward thinking rather than a backwards step in MHO

    S.... M....

    Hell no.The female backing vocals are meant to be in the song. You're an idiot.

  3. E.... ....

    So plaintive

  5. B.... G....

    Peaked at No. 65 on the UK Singles Chart and No. 27 on the Billboard Hot Dance Club Play Charts in 1982. Great song.

    B.... G....

    I love the story John Lydon tells about "God Save The Queen" making it to #1, but in fact, there was only a blank space there. He calls it Britain's real national anthem :)

    B.... G....

    It was on the BBC's Banned list as well.

  6. A.... D....

    This is an awesome fuck you track. It's so sarcastic and ironic.

    A.... D....

    You are pretty... dumb mate

  7. R.... S....

    Radios In Motion WDET Detroit
    Mike Halloran where art thou?? Hahaa haaa

  8. E.... S....

    This one goes out to kevin arnold

  9. R.... C....

    Shoot. Shoot.
