Can anyone here guess the name of this song?

[starguard]

This is a rally song from the 1980's whose lyrics go something like this:

Can you hear me
Can you hear me calling
Can you hear me calling
Can you hear me calling you

Pledge alligance to the flag
Whatever flag they offer
Never let them know how you really feel

Teach the children quietly
For someday our sons and daughters
Will rise up and fight while we sit still

Can you hear me
Can you hear me calling
Can you hear me calling
Can you hear me calling you..

At first I thought it was made by Phil Collins, but when I look it up on the web I got nothing.. Anybody here know the name of this song and who made it?

I guess I can't be right all of the time

Like my Drill sergeant used to say:

I may not always be right.. but I'm NEVER wrong"

 

[The Question]

I thought your DI always used to say, "BEAT YOUR FACE!!! YOU ARE A FUCKING CANCER, STARGUARD!!! DO YOU WANT TO KNOW HOW I KNOW THAT? I ASKED YOUR DEAR OLD DADDY AND YOUR SWEET LITTLE OLD MOMMY! AND DO YOU KNOW WHAT THEY SAID?! DO YOU KNOW WHAT THEY FUCKING SAID?! THEY SAID IF YOU HAD BEEN A LITTLE GIRL, THEY WOULD'VE NAMED YOUR SORRY DRAGGING ASS 'MELANOMA'!!! WELL, GUESS WHAT, YOU FUCKING WORTHLESS CANCER?! FROM NOW ON, YOUR NAME IS PRIVATE FUCKING MELANOMA, BECAUSE YOU HAVE NOT SHOWN ME EVIDENCE FUCKING UNO THAT YOU ARE NOT A LITTLE FUCKING GIRL!!!"

That's what your DI always used to say. At least on Saturdays.

Meh, sorry about that. Sometimes I have this weird thing where I channel R. Lee Emery, no idea what that's about.
