"I Don't Wanna Get Drafted" was a 1980 single by American musician Frank Zappa. It was rerecorded for the 1981 album You Are What You Is under the title "Drafted Again". The record company Zappa was with at the time, Mercury, refused to release it as a single. Zappa instead created his own record company, Barking Pumpkin, and released it from there. It peaked at 103 on American charts, but more successfully reached 3 on Swedish Charts. The single version was later included on Zappa's posthumously released The Lost Episodes.

The song was a humorous protest of the reinstatement of the draft by the Carter administration. Lyrics such as "Roller skates 'n disco is a lot of fun. I'm too young 'n stupid to operate a gun" refers to the opinion that the draft brings many young people who are not ready and possibly not smart enough for the military. Statements about women being drafted were brought up as well throughout the song.

The single version contains lead vocals from Frank Zappa and a chorus, while on the album some verses are sung by Ahmet Zappa and Moon Zappa. The original recording was made at Ocean Way Studios on Sunset Boulevard. A female background singer was added, two days later. Frank Zappa's vocals are not as dominant on the album version. The single version is also much less produced, which led to the album version being mocked by critics who considered it too overdubbed. Also the album version has added lyrics such as the lines, "Ya little sumbitch", "Goddamn little communist", and "LaCelia Jackson! Come on down! Nancy Butterworth! Come on down! You're the next contestants on SOOOOO WHAT! And, but, also. A new car! But that's not all..." (referencing lines from the game show The Price Is Right). The album version closes with a sample of a vocal compilation from "Flower Punk" (from the album We're Only in It for the Money), including the notable lyric, "Leave my nose alone please."
