Iron Hand |
| With all the clarity of dream |
| The sky so blue, the grass so green |
| The rank and file and the navy blue |
| The deep and strong, the straight and true |
| The blue line they got the given sign |
| The belts and boots marched forward in time |
| The wood and the leather the club and shield |
| Swept like a wave across the battlefield |
| Now with all the clarity of dream |
| The blood so red, the grass so green |
| The gleam of spur on the chestnut flank |
| The cavalry did burst upon the ranks |
| Oh the iron will and the iron hand |
| In England’s green and pleasant land |
| No music for the shameful scene |
| That night they said it had even shocked the queen |
| Well alas we’ve seen it all before |
| Knights in armour, days for yore |
| The same old fears and the same old crimes |
| We haven’t changed since ancient times |
