I wanna live a life of danger…
Um. What are the rest of the lyrics?

[sub]Sung to the tune of Battle Hymn of the Republic[/sub]

Gory, gory what a helluva a way to die…

I’ve never been in the army, so I don’t know if this is the “definitive” version. Jodis tend to change over time, and between services.

and then I kicked it it!
(chorus)
I went to the college,
where all the people learn.
I ripped out a flamethrower,
and I began to burn!
(chorus) . . .*
You get the idea. . .

I’ve been known to make up my own on a few courses, too.
