Do You Wanna Die?

You wanna join the army
Visit beautiful countries
Meet interesting....and kill them!
You wanna march on with your boots
in the rain forests of Brazil
See some endangered species....and kill them!
chorus
Do you wanna die? Do you wanna die?
Do you really wanna die?
Then join the army, fight a war, drop the bomb
and don't ask why!
You wanna join the army
to fight the aliens from out of space
Meet the kids from planet Mars....and kill them!
The country needs
you to fight a war or to keep peace
Send you to the Russians....and kill them!
You got a gun but you got no brain
Trained to kill and not to complain
Send you to the Chinese....and kill you!
Do You Wanna Die?

The song serves as a stark exploration of emotional exhaustion and the desire for an end to suffering, characteristic of the artist's broader discography. With its stripped-back production and haunting vocal delivery, the recording captures a specific moment of vulnerability often found in the band's work. It stands as a poignant addition to their catalog, resonating with listeners who have experienced the weight of unrequited love or deep existential dread. The piece reflects the Dutch indie scene's tendency toward emotional honesty, offering a sonic landscape where personal pain is transformed into a universal anthem of despair.
