Soldiers dilemma

Please answer my question
Why do I have to go to war
I don´t believe in the government´s greed
I find the whole thing a bore
Well if you think that it´s right
To fight well then fight
Well please don´t ask me to join in
The trouble were in,
How did it begin
Well please don´t ask me to fight your war
I ain´t tired of living
I like to keep in one piece
I don´t like the odds you´re giving
You ain´t having me on a lease
I like to eat three meals a day
In my own lazy way
And you can keep kitchen sweet
That you´re giving away for free
Even after I protested
Seems I don´t have any choice
You put a gun in my hand now
You say I´m fighting for peace
Well it´s just a lie
So why should I die
For something in which I don´t believe
Well it´s so hard
When you´re shooting at me
Well all I can do is reply
[Chorus]
Why do I have to go to war
I don´t believe in the government´s greed
I find the whole thing a bore
Well if you think that it´s right
To fight well then fight
Well please don´t ask me to join in
The trouble were in,
How did it begin
Well please don´t ask me to fight your war
I ain´t tired of living
I like to keep in one piece
I don´t like the odds you´re giving
You ain´t having me on a lease
I like to eat three meals a day
In my own lazy way
And you can keep kitchen sweet
That you´re giving away for free
Even after I protested
Seems I don´t have any choice
You put a gun in my hand now
You say I´m fighting for peace
Well it´s just a lie
So why should I die
For something in which I don´t believe
Well it´s so hard
When you´re shooting at me
Well all I can do is reply
[Chorus]
