Action Man Songtext
von John Cooper Clarke

Give him scars and khaki to wear
Remove his balls, he′ll go anywhere
He doesn't speak, he doesn′t dare
Death sneaks, he isn't scared
Minus balls, he doesn't care
Jacks beware, action man. He can ack-ack Ackrington, bomb Berlin
Reduce your car to a heap of tin
Wage war, what′s more - win
Punctured skin means nothing to him
The human grenade minus pin
That′s him, action man


A chin with a thin Kirk Douglas cleft
Squad by the bleeding left
Don't shout he′s deaf
Head over heels in love with death
Beware of the wrath of the man bereft
No marriage plans for action man
