Veils |
I have never fired a gun |
Laid down my life for anyone |
And I have never lost a son. |
From tenement to sink estate |
Comes with post to boys that wait |
Swept out by the Queen and state. |
Were you there in the chapel |
Singing «Glory halle-lu» |
Let common sense prevail |
For they know not what they do |
Lose the boy, make the man |
See the world in jagged lands |
Face down in the desert sands. |
Bang the drum and draw the veil |
For Helmand and for Passchendaele |
For Helmand and for Passchendaele. |
Pick a side if you want to |
From the safety of your bed |
Let the fingers be parted |
But let glory grieve instead |
Were you there in the chapel |
Singing «Glory halle-lu» |
Let common sense prevail |
For they know not what they do |
Pick a side if you want to |
From the safety of your bed |
Let the fingers be parted |
But let glory grieve instead |
I have never fired a gun |
Laid down my life for anyone |
And I have never lost a son. |
