Lyrics
In order to test the effects of an incapacitating drug, under field conditions
A simple exercise was devised
The troops were given the same quantity of water to drink before each day's exercise
Unknown to the troops, the drug was added to the water on the second day
The first effects of the drug make their appearance
The men no longer take cover, the relax and begin to feel
Losing all contact with reality
The troops have lost their air of urgency, and many men are laughing
Meanwhile, radio communication at the beachead has become difficult, if not impossible
Men, with no specific task to perform, have relaxed into laughter and inconsequential behaviour
Though they are still capable of sustained physical effort
Seventy minutes after the administration of the drug, with one man climbing a tree, the troop commander gives up
Saying, "I cannot do anything about this"
"I cannot control the men and I can take no action myself"
"I am wiped out as an attacking force"
