(Ron & Russel Mael) I'm on guard again but unprepared to fend for myself in a battle You wont tell me why the shrubbery moves Or why there always has to be subterfusion You wont even say "at ease" After waging a costly siege When a potentate ain't so potent in his state he summons help fast Unilaterally I withdraw What was peace is now a grand coup detant The Purple Heart for valour please And no heart for you Denise Reinforcements, reinforcements I could use a strong rear guard Reinforcements, reinforcements First the left flank, then the right I'd sooner work the PX tonight You intercept my S.O.S in order that no news of my distress will ever reach the homefront and about my camoflage, well, it didnt work on you ... in fact most things they tell recruits never seem to do Raise my rank if I should last another night so tortuous Reinforcements, reinforcements I dont want a te-ta-tete Reinforcements, reinforcements Lets reach accord, and ink a pact Then, pleace dismiss your regiment Reinforcements, reinforcements I could use a strong rear guard Reinforcements, reinforcements I could use a strong rear guard Reinforcements, reinforcements I could use a strong rear guard Reinforcements, reinforcements Reinforcements, reinforcements ...
