Peter Gabriel – Animal Magic Lyrics | 13 years ago |
This song is about a guy who is humiliated (probably by a girl) and joins the army to "learn to fight". "Join the Professionals" was a British Army recruiting slogan, and at the time this song was written, going "across to Northern Ireland" meant going into harm's way and perhaps doing some harm yourself. |
