Clean, Clean - The Buggles

Pogo Johnny kicked me in the head

Aimin' for the floorboards but they picked me up instead

Through the ringing of the night before

Said the engine’s running, gotta pay a call

Johnny drove the halftrack 'cause we could not find the jeep

Wake me in the morning, gotta get some sleep

Driving all night out of fear

Got it in the ribs every time I changed gear

I’m gonna take a ride, gonna pick up the team

Gonna go where we’ve never been

I’m gonna take a ride, gonna pick up the team

(pickin' up, pickin' up the team)

God you know it’s hard to keep the fighting clean

Clean, clean

Clean, clean

Clean, clean

Clean, clean

Pogo Johnny gonna fight the war

Chaplain in the morning at the local liquor store

Pogo coughin' bad from diesel fumes

Johnny tell the chaplain go and polish his tombs

Lying on the wasteground with a blanket on his face

Indicating that he’s left the human race

Helmet open where the world came in

Gotta keep your head if you wanna win

I’m gonna take a ride, gonna pick up the team

Gonna go where we’ve never been

I’m gonna take a ride, gonna pick up the team

(pickin' up, pickin' up the team)

God you know it’s hard to keep the fighting clean

Clean, clean

Clean, clean

Clean, clean

Clean, clean

Clean, clean

Clean, clean

Clean, clean

Clean, clean

Lost a million in the very first attack

Don’t you worry cause we know we’ll get them back

Lost a million in the very first attack
