I´m a work in progress
I´m a seed growin' into a flower
I´m a storm that´s rising
I'm getting stronger with every hour
And God knows I ain´t perfect
Tell me who in the world is
All I know is that I´m searchin
For somebody to love me with

These flaws I´ve got
They're a part of who I am
Take me or not
But I finally understand
I´m so done tryna to be
everything you want
And I had to stop
Cause baby you ain´t worth it
if I gotta Camouflage
For love, for love
No I won't Camouflage
For love, for love
I won't Camouflage

I need a lot of improvement
Not even half way to destiny
But I´m a train that´s moving
And everyday I´m picking up speed
And God knows you ain´t perfect
So who are you to put pressure on me
that´s why I´m still searchin
For somebody to love me with

These flaws I´ve got
They're a part of who I am
Take me or not
but I finally understand
And I´m so done tryna to be
everything you want
cause I had to stop
Because baby you ain´t worth it
if I gotta Camouflage
For love, for love
No I won't Camouflage
For love, for love
I won't Camouflage

I´ve learned from my mistakes
The only way you´re gonna be happy
Is if someone's down to take
you when it´s good and
it´s bad you see
I tried giving half of me
In the end I came up empty
And that´s why I´m searching yeah
For somebody to love me
with these flaws

These flaws I´ve got
They're a part of who I am
Take me or not
But I finally understand
I´m so done tryna to be
everything you want
And I had to stop
Because baby you ain´t worth it
if I gotta to Camouflage
These flaws I´ve got
There apart of who I am
Take me or not
But I finally understand
I´m so done trying to be
everything you want
And I had to stop
Because baby you ain´t worth it
if I gotta to Camouflage
For love, for love
No I won't Camouflage
For love, for love
I won't Camouflage

If I gotta Camouflage

Cause baby you ain´t worth it
If I gotta camouflage
Baby you ain't worth it
If I gotta Camouflage

Justice comes into your life and then you’ll know
You’ll know
Justice comes, justice let it come
I get the justice coming for you and I
I get the joy joy when it comes my joy, I get the joy
When justice comes to everyone
Why does a willow weep when all I see’s a tree grow
All in camouflage everyone I know
We walk along like sequel, you’re a cameo
You’ve got your joy
So find the people of your own
I’ll take in anyone who’s taking off their camouflage
Go on check it
I’ll take in anyone who’s messing up the sabotage
To yourself don’t destroy
I’ll take in anyone who’s taking off their camouflage
Gimme the ball, gimme it all, big orange ball
Roll up over fields
I shame the devil cause I throw it down so hard
I rock the big line, I rock the back yard
Be a dream in color even on a winter’s night
Thinking George Seurat, afternoon bathed in light
Get your joy no matter who says it’s right
Their cover’s blown
Find the story of your own
Check it
I’ll take in anyone who’s taking off their camouflage
Go on check it
I’ll take in anyone who’s messing up the sabotage
To yourself don’t destroy
I’ll take in anyone who’s taking off their camouflage
Ok, ok, ok
In the geometry of, prism of my of my eye will flow
I ask the questions and wonder why,
Only to roll in a big arrange ball that floats in a summer sky
(secret words never to be printed)
Take it up from the underground, proactive and soul,
Play a vital roll that’s what you are
Check it
I’ll take in anyone who’s taking off their camouflage
Go on check it
I’ll take in anyone who’s messing up the sabotage
To yourself don’t destroy
I’ll take in anyone who’s taking off their camouflage

Camouflage
What is this force around me
Just like a tractor beam that
Is always pulling me down...and when
Ever I get the chance to
Spill my guts about you
It tries to tape up my mouth

What good am I
If I just keep you quiet
What good am I
if I don't speak, 'cause...

[Chorus]
I don't wanna be camouflage
What I'm not
'Cause what I got invades the world
I don't wanna be in a box
All I want
Is just to stop being
Camouflage

I'm sick of trying to blend
Thinking that I should fit in
Like I am somebody else...Why do
I go against what I say
I come across like a fake
And keep you all to myself

It's not that I
Wanna shove it on somebody
It's just that I
That I can't hide

[Repeat Chorus]

I can't hide

[Repeat Chorus]

[Mad Child]
We act on animal instinct
Survival of the primitive
Invade your camp, then set up a perimeter
Interrogate the prisoner, ransack your residence
Order from the President to document this evidence
Company commander, this is my version of capital
Punishment scars from carving out shards of shrapnel
Attacking with passion, the movement of murderous intimate
In hand to hand combat or atomic bombs that disintegrate
Let me reiterate, in a state of neurosis
A license to kill, plus an expert with explosives
Assult forces, feel the shell shock
Section eight sounds great, give me a cell block
As sure as hells hot, I'd rather go there
Crouched down, jungle fatigue, guerrilla warfare
On watch, think about the bullets I've dodged
Light a smoke and post it up for the night in camoflage

["Military Minded" scratch]

[Prevail]
I make my face stick with paint stick
Todays the dawn of the infected insect
Bees, butterflies, beetles, and panzer dragons
There's danger of ganzes (??) in roaming in my squadron
We hate them all, that's why we made the eight ball
The milk and water tastes like typhoid and protocall
Sleep deprivation, magic carpet bombing ride
Talking to my gas mask, walking down the thin red line
You're currently tuned in to NBC
The only channel that you get is from my M-16
Unlace my boots and place my troops
I'm more terrified of mosquitoes than I am of the paratroops
I'm in the shitbox, reading Alfred Hitchcock
Five minutes later I'm bleeding out my snot box
I see the witch doc, he says it's rice grains
Dropped from airplanes, sprayed with anthrax
Operation Peking, take the ground back
It's found in brown rats
And in the toilet paper issued in your ruck sack
Agent N, Agent X, before fade to black
Camoflage

["Military Minded" scratch]

Camouflage you close your eyes, hiding in plain sight
Wrapped tightly in blankets of lies, live whatever life you synthesize
Disguise the truth about yourself, bury it six feet deep,
Bring to life your deceit and stealth, lock the door and throw away the key.

Hide behind your lies, I seek through your disguise
It leads to your demise, I see it in your eyes.

Disarray your life slips into, falling apart at the seams,
You can't understand what's going on, who you once were is forever gone.
On and on the tangled web you weave, running from your past
You listen to whatever you want to believe
Too late karma comes around to you so fast.

All you do is lie, cheit deceive
Everyone you hate, need, believe
All you do is lie.

Flippin around the truth, you're slipping;
Tighten the noose around your neck is ripping,
Anything you wish, take a pen and script in
Manufacture the truth all you do is lie...

Find an action, take an action
Faced with life
Make it easy, make it easier
Say what you want
'cuz I'll do anything you say for you
Simple minded parasite
Put a gun in my hand
Oh, I'm not alright...

Satisfaction is making billions
Faced with life
A narrow mind makes many world wide problems - will you drive?
My headache is much more aware of you than I am

Simple minded parasite
Put a gun in my hand
Oh, I'm not alright...
Ah, Ah, Ah, Ah-Ah, Ah...

And someday you will ask yourself who you are
Ask yourself who you are
Ask yourself who you are
Ask yourself! who you are
Ask yourself who you are

Ah, Ah, Ah, Ah-Ah, Ah...

I was a PFC on a search patrol huntin' Charlie down
It was in the jungle wars of '65
My weapon jammed and I got stuck way out and all alone
And I could hear the enemy movin' in close outside

Just then I heard a twig snap and I grabbed my empty gun
And I dug in scared while I counted down my fate
And then a big marine, a giant with a pair of friendly eyes
Appeared there at my shoulder and said: Wait!

When he came in close beside me he said: Don't worry, son, I'm here
If Charlie wants to tangle now they'll have two to dodge
I said: Well, thanks alot, I told him my name and asked him his
And he said: The boys just call me Camouflage

Ohoohoho, Camouflage, things are never quite the way they seem
Ohoohoho, Camouflage, I was awfully glad to see this big marine

Well, I was gonna ask him where he came from when we heard the bullets fly
Comin' through the brush and all around our ears
It was then I saw this big marine light a fire in his eye
And it was strange, but suddenly I forgot my fears

We fought all night and side by side, we took our battle stance
And I wondered how the bullets missed this man
'Cause they seemed to go right through him just as if he wasn't there
And in the mornin' we both took a chance and ran

And it was near the riverbank when the ambush came on top of us
And I'd thought it was the end and we were had
Then a bullet with my name on it came buzzin' through a bush
And that big marine, he just swat it with his hands

Just like it was a fly!

Ohoohoho, Camouflage, things are never quite the way they seem
Ohoohoho, Camouflage, this was an awfully strange marine

And I knew there was something weird about him
'Cause when I turned around he was pullin' a big palm tree up out of the ground
And swattin' those charlies with it from here to kingdom come

When he led me out of danger, I saw my camp and waved goodbye
But he just winked at me from the jungle and then was gone
And when I got back to my HQ I told 'em about my night
And the battle I'd spent with a big marine named Camouflage

When I said his name a soldier gulped and a medic took my arm
And led me to a green tent on the right
He said: You may be tellin' true boy, but this here is Camouflage
And he's been right here since he passed away last night

In fact, he's been here all week long
But before he went he said Semper Fi and said his only wish
Was to save a young marine caught in a barrage

So here, take his dog tag son, I know he'd want you to have it now
And we both said a prayer for a big marine named Camouflage

Ohoohoho, Camouflage, things are never quite the way they seem
Ohoohoho, Camouflage, this was an awfully strange marine

So, next time, you're in a jungle fight and you feel a presence near
Or hear a voice that in your mind will lodge
Just be thankful that you're not alone and you've got some company
From a big marine the boys call Camouflage

Ohoohoho, Camouflage, things are never quite the way they seem
Ohoohoho, Camouflage, this was an awfully strange marine

Ohoohoho, Camouflage, things are never quite the way they seem
Ohoohoho, Camouflage, this was an awfully strange marine

Oho, Camouflage
Oho, Camouflage
Oho, Camouflage
Oho, Camouflage

Oho, Camouflage
Oho, Camouflage
Oho, Camouflage
Oho, Camouflage

Hiding in back
And never make a sound
If you don’t speak your thoughts they can’t be turned around
Cause you lead a targeted youth
Can’t find the courage to leave your shell yet.

Finding short term courage in a flask
Another wasted day you’re never getting back
Cause you lead a targeted youth
(would only talk to certain few)
Can’t find the courage to leave your shell yet
Torn apart and…..

Camouflage in the background and holding things deep
Never showing your true self to the kids you meet
Finding shade in imagination
One more day forgotten to the world

Hiding in back and never make a sound
If you don’t speak your thoughts they can’t be turned around
Cause you lead a targeted youth
(would only talk to certain few)
Can’t find the courage to leave your shell yet
Torn apart and….

Camouflage in the background and holding things deep
Never showing your true self to the kids you meet
Finding shade in imagination
One more day forgotten to the world

(One more day forgotten to the world)

Finding Short term courage in a flask

"Camouflage"

Kevin wasn't really all that popular in school
But I remember well the day I thought now that guy's pretty cool
He pulled into the parking lot and everybody cheered
Because he had gone and painted his entire Chevy Cavalier camouflage

Camouflage it disappears when it pulls out of his garage
Camouflage-camouflage

I asked Jenny to the prom and her mom knew how to sew
So she made a matching tux and gown from Duck Blind Mossy Oak
We took pictures in the backyard before we went to the dance
And the only thing that you can see is our faces and our hands

Camouflage,
Camouflage you should've seen the way it popped with her coursage
Camouflage, camouflage, ain't nothing that doesn't go with camouflage

You can blend in in the country
You can stand out in the fashion world
Be invisible to a white tail and irresistible to a redneck girl

Camouflage, camouflage
Oh you're my favorite color camouflage

You can blend in in the country
You can stand out in the fashion world
Be invisible to a white tail and irresistible to a redneck girl

Well the stars and bars offend some folks and I guess I see why
Nowadays there's still a way to show your southern pride
The only thing as patriotic as the old red white and blue
Is green and gray and black and brown and tan all over too

Camouflage, camouflage
Designed by Mother Nature and by God

It's camouflage, camouflage
Oh you're my favorite color camouflage
