U. S. ARMY

SNAFU is a soldier. He's a patriotic conscientious guy; he thinks the Army's swell. Hum—that is with a few minor changes.

You find SNAFU in all branches of the service—

♫ "There's a burlesque theater where the boys like to go,
To see Queenie, the cutie of burlesque show.
[scat]
The band plays the polka while she strips.

"'Take it off! Take it off!'
Goes the cry from the rear;
'Down in front! Down in front!'
Soon it's all you can hear;
And she's always a lady, even in pantomime,
And she stops—" ♫

♫ "'Take it off! Take it off!'
Goes the cry from the rear;
'Down in front! Down in front!'
Soon it's all you can hear;
But she's always a lady, even in pantomime,
And she stops… and always just in time." ♫

"Listen you guys! Don't give me none of that stuff! I'm not dummy! I know my rights as a soldier!"

"I want a lawyer! Get me a lawyer!"
