You wouldn't read about it I thought the company was ten feet tall I got back, checked for a minute I've got a gun, I've got the bullets!
I'm the Point Man I walk the point I take the ride out I walk on full automatic One up the spout
The others walk behind me They're on semi-safety So some itchy fingered FNG Doesn't nail my arse
I take the fall I witness full atrocity Because, I'm the one in the lead
I'm the Point Man I take the ride out See what I can find I take the ride out I take the lead I take my men there
You know. It's lonely out there But I enjoy the solitude It helps me push - I watch myself I take myself to my own limits. Point Man Point Man, I'm a Point Man
Now listen very carefully In the jungle, everyone can hear you scream Point Man, Well I'm the Point Man
Once I was gone for three weeks I got back, couldn't recognise my face I couldn't think for a minute I got a gun, I got the bullets!
It makes me weak, not being out there I sit around, can't think anymore I'm not driving out there no more I'm not driving there no more!
I want you to listen up very carefully 'Cause what I've got to say May save a life First thing don't get to know your people too well,
Secondly, there's three ways to die. First - is man made Second - nature and the Third, well she's at home With your best friend And you don't have to worry Because this type of death will get, will come And get you in your dreams!
When I do this (signal) it means stop This means get down That's an ambush That's the enemy If you listen to me I'll save your life If you listen to me I might save a life
Are you listening to me?
Out here we have two types of people One's a leader, the other's a follower Which one are you? You'd better think about it.
And that girl you've left behind, Forget about her, Forget about her! Alone, Is the only way to be!
Point Man Point Man I'm the Point Man, get the Point Man
You listen to me and I'll save your life I won't be out there gunning for your failure For me the only way Is to come back alive Rely on no-one Rely on no-one
