      It’s possible that some indigenous Zimbabweans would love your idea! Under Prime Minister Smith, they had a much better standard of living. My country America 🇺🇸 missed the boat by not helping Rhodesia like they did Israel. I would love for Rhodesia to come back!

      T.A.B. is the Typhoid, paratyphoid A + B vaccine. "Bluestone" is copper sulphate, which was rumoured to be added to soldier's food and drink to decrease their sex drive to keep them under control. A chibuli is a beer.

    sometimes i wish i was a blue job up in the sky
    i wouldn't have to walk if i could fly
    but i'll be a brown job until i die
    with ten years to go in the RLI
    the Sergeant that signed me up,
    had a face like the back of a truck
    a tatoo on each knee
    and legs like a mugla tree.
    and the medic that did my test
    he left me standing in my vest
    and then when i didn't see
    he stamped me with a TAP
    sometimes i wish i was a blue job up in the sky
    i wouldn't have to walk if i could fly
    but i'll be a brown job until i die
    with ten years to go in the RLI
    down at the quartermaster's store
    i said i'd take size four
    they gave me size three for sports
    it was pair of open neck shorts
    was in the cookhouse queue
    waiting for my beans and stew
    the cook just winks at me
    and slips the blue stone in my tea
    ometimes i wish i was a blue job up in the sky
    i wouldn't have to walk if i could fly
    but i'll be a brown job until i die
    with ten years to go in the RLI
    Standing on parade
    never get a bit of shade
    out in the blazing sun
    with the temperature a hundred and one
    and you know there's nothing worse
    then doing the assault course
    when the sweat is running free
    and it smells like a chiboolie
    ometimes i wish i was a blue job up in the sky
    i wouldn't have to walk if i could fly
    but i'll be a brown job until i die
    with ten years to go in the RLI
    We had a contact the other day
    but the turrs all ran away
    we were firing the MAG
    from the hip like Audie Murphy
    si it i go up in a putt of smoke
    its better than being a sloke
    or a tuss from the BSAP
    i'd very much rather be me
    sometimes i wish i was a blue job up in the sky
    i wouldn't have to walk if i could fly
    but i'll be a brown job until i die
    with ten years to go in the RLI

    Rhodesia was an oppressive regime. It was also however, one of the most developed countries in Africa at the time. The average Rhodesian GDP per capita in 1980 was around $1k. It took Zimbabwe till 2010 to get back to that level.

    • @lutenantsweedpertasa
      @lutenantsweedpertasa 5 лет назад +17

      rasmia09 a blue job is an airforce job, specifically flying. Brown job is army. I think the tattoo part is just tattoos. It actually slips, not sips and the blue stone is supposedly a pill put is a soldiers food and drink to decrease their libido or sex drive. Turrs most likely refers to the terrorists the Rhodesians were fighting.

    • @jediknight1294
      @jediknight1294 3 года назад

      Blue stone was copper sulphate or bromine kills sex drive means you can't get it up. Terrs short for terrorists. Blue job is slang for Air force, Brown Job infantry. The tattoo was mainly for the rhyme pattern.
      Slope is a slur from nam.

      Israelis liked the rhodesians and supported them. Hot climates with FALs surrounded by nations that want you dead (aside from SA in Rhodesias case) and a bunch of internationalists crying and lying.
