[Intro] (B.F.P.O) (Army dreamers) (Mammy's hero) (B.F.P.O) (Mammy's hero) [Verse 1] Our little army boy Is coming home from B.F.P.O We've a bunch of purple flowers To decorate a mammy's hero Mourning in the aerodrome The weather warmer, he is colder Four men in uniform To carry home my little soldier [Chorus] (What could he do? Should have been a rock star) But he didn't have the money for a guitar (What could he do? Should have been a politician) But he never had a proper education (What could he do? Should have been a father) But he never even made it to his twenties What a waste, army dreamers Oh, what a waste of army dreamers [Verse 2] Tears over a tin box Oh, Jesus Christ, he wasn't to know Like a chicken with a fox He couldn't win the war with ego Give the kid the pick of pips And give him all your stripes and ribbons Now he's sitting in his hole He might as well have buttons and bows [Chorus] (What could he do? Should have been a rock star) But he didn't have the money for a guitar (What could he do? Should have been a politician) But he never had a proper education (What could he do? Should have been a father) But he never even made it to his twenties What a waste, army dreamers Oh, what a waste of army dreamers Oh, what a waste of all them army dreamers Army dreamers, army dreamers

Guessing this is a reference but if not then I guess you gotta start picking up the pen and paper 💀 studying can still be fun, better than going to die
Four men in uniform to carry home my little soldier what could he do? Should’ve been a rockstar he never had the money for a guitar. What could he do? Should’ve been a politician but he never had a proper education what could he do? Should’ve been a father but he never made it to his 20s what a waste… (Finish the song)

"What could she do? Should have been a doctor " But she didn't have passion for the job, "What could she do? Should have been a ballerina" But she didn't had a proper education, "What could he do? Should have been the older brother " But he never even made it to his teenage's, *What a waste* (These are my siblings btw,)
