What did you mean when you opened your mouth and let all our secrets out? 
You told him what I was about, my cover was completely blown. 
I tell you darling, I've been watching the war films 
And I've got a few ideas of my own, 
'cos after the film had ended, the call for recruits was shown, 
 
And I'll be joining the professionals, I want to be a man. 
With all that animal magic I'll do anything you can. 
I'm joining the professionals 'cos I want to be a man, 
Look! I wave my wand, watch the rabbit disappear... 
Join the professionals and learn to fight! 
 
I bet the two of you still laugh at me for being timid as a lamb; 
That may be the way I look, but it's no longer what I am. 
I've been across to Northern Ireland, 
And I came home with a new kind of charge: 
I learned how to hunt in the night, I learned about camouflage. 
 
I've been joining the professionals, and now that I'm a man 
With all that animal magic I'll match anything you can. 
I'm joining the professionals, this time I understand, 
Look! I wave my wand, watch the rabbit disappear... 
Join the professionals and learn to fight!
