You take his orders, you’re on command
You do your chores, no need to think
Don’t need a conscience, whatever the task

Bob, the job
D-d-do it, Bob, it’s your job
I said
Bob, the job
D-d-do it, Bob, it’s your job

I take his orders, I get my pay
He names the victims, I kill them all
Sometimes they resist, I only work here

Bob, the job
D-d-do it, Bob, it’s your job
I said
Bob, the job
Do it, Bob, it’s your job

I take his orders, I get my pay
He names the victims, I kill them all
Sometimes they resist, I only work here

Bob, the job
D-d-do it, Bob, it’s your job
I said
Bob, the job
Do it, Bob, it’s your job

I’m only obeying orders
I’m only obeying orders
I only obey the orders
I’m only obeying orders
I only obey the orders

Bob, the job
D-d-do it, Bob, it’s your job
I said
Bob, the job
Do it, Bob, please, it’s your job

Bob, the job
D-d-do it, Bob, it’s your job
Bob, the job
Please, Bob, it’s your job

I said
Bob, the job
Do it, Bob, it’s your job
