John Hiatt - Take Off Your Uniform lyrics

You`ve been a good girl,

You`ve been a bad girl

You`re not a girl anymore

Deep in a picture show

Unbuttoned in the last row

You watched the grown-ups win the war

Now that they`ve got you where they want you

You`re just combin` your hair

The alteration`s done,but you`re havin` way too much fun

They want to touch you but you just don`t care

Take off your uniform

They see what they want to see

You should have never been born

You`d better stay with me

Your replacement

Waits in the basement

They`ve got her down to your smile

She writes those letters too

She thinks she`s better than you

She says you`re just a foolish child

They got her smilin` while she`s dialing

She`s such a clever machine

She`d fit in anywhere, now that her vision`s impaired

She listens up, but she don`t know what they mean

Take off your uniform

They see what they want to see

You should have never been born

You`d better stay with me

Everyone`s happy with your daily activities

They like that tone in your voice

Now that you`re finally an adult in America

You`re too dumb to have a choice

Take off your uniform

They see what they want to see

You should have never been born

Take off your uniform

They see what they want to see

You should have never been born

You`d better stay with me
