You were seen by someone enlisted;
I know you feel doomed but he isn't brass, 'sides,
You pass and so your innocence will be presumed.
Keep your heads on and relax and if someone attacks:
First, you laugh it off - always staying calm - then,
Diffuse their accusations with complete applaud.
Never beat a fast retreat.
Learn to parry back - stay light on your feet - tell 'em "what the hell?" tell 'em "take a hike!"
Let 'em think it's out of boredom - not a thing you like.
Blushing like a sugar beet makes them think the case against ya's complete.
Army can't indict a fella light on his feet.
[Stu's journal.
"What's so important in that?"
*laughs* [sung] Tales of the South Pacific that give you a clue of how Stu
And me made it through lots of rough times.
April 23, on a base in Guam: I was spied beneath a bunk bed with a cook named Tom.
[spoken] Oh, well hello there, Tom [sung] Said he spilled his drink and slipped;
Found a way to reconfigure the script.
August 17: Me and ensign drew... said that he was kneeling praying which was almost true.
First of June, an airmen's club: flyer said his muscles needed a rub... scene was quite a fright;
We left that night still light on our feet -stay light on your feet.
With some acrobatic thinking you can make it through - a bit of disguise, a little deceit...
They've got the war to worry about, they want you to give 'em an out.
So, make a leap, take a chance and you can dance through this mans army.
