The Lyrics

More Zombie mayhem!!!
I’m fed up by the evening
It was just another bad day
I wake up in the morning
It’s just survival the same way
How many times has this gun been fired?
I'm just tired of defending myself
Hey there Army, I could use precious outside help

I’m gonna expire
Zombies almost got me in the park
Need gun's to fire
and infra-red for shooting in the dark

Zombies keep getting closer
radio's on and I'm moving place-to-place
So tired of this fear and horror
Got blood on my clothes, my hair, my face
I find weapons here and there
But without ammo I’m at risk
There's a stockpile out there, somewhere
Army, I’m starting to get pissed!

I’m gonna expire
Zombies almost got me in the park
Need gun's to fire
and infra-red for shooting in the dark

The Zombies are getting bolder
they smell the flesh and want to feed on me
Tired of looking over my shoulder
Army, be all that you can be!!!

Out on the streets of this town
and they'll be keeping me up all night
The Zombies are always hungry
Hey Army, I'm the one fighting tonight
I'm dying for some weapons
I'm sick of sitting 'round here waiting for your Chinook
I need some support action
come on now Army, send me some crack troops!

I can't wage a war sitting 'round crying over broken parts
Need gun's to fire
and infra-red for shooting in the dark
I can’t wage a war worrying about this rotten world falling apart
Need gun's to fire
and infra-red for shooting in the dark

and infra-red for shooting in the dark
and infra-red for shooting in the dark
and infra-red for shooting in the dark
Hey Army!!!
