Pantyhose Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Boys marching to war

To certain defeat

They were younger than me

Guns poke through the trees

Death on a whim

They were aiming at him

[Chorus]

And when the bullets came he didn't duck

He wrapped her pantyhose around his neck

And he could feel their magic working

Keeping him from harm

Away to some place mystical and warm

His lucky charm

[Verse 2]

He got caught

No cover at all

He'd breathe in her scent

Not even a scratch

He didn't die when he stepped on a mine

They were violet and soft

It didn't go off

[Chorus]

And when her letter came

He didn't cry

He wrapped her pantyhose around his eyes

And he could feel their magic working

Keeping him from harm

Even though she didn't love him anymore

You can't kill a lucky charm
