    They built it Overseas
    He told his friend
    As I sat at my table
    Listening in
    I don't know what they built
    Or who "they" were
    Don't even know where
    Overseas is

    I'm divorced
    Or I'd ask my wife

    They sent me Overseas
    The lieutenant said
    I couldn't see any point
    Questioning him
    He kept his secret

    Still don't have a clue
    Where that place is at
