Noten von Donovan! |
He is five feet two, and he’s six feet four, |
he fights with missiles and with spears. |
He is all of thirty-one, and he’s only seventeen. |
He’s been a soldier for a thousand years. |
He’s a Catholic, a Hindu, an atheist, a Chein, |
a Buddhist and a Babtist and a Jew. |
And he knows, he shouldn’t kill |
and he knows he always will, |
kill him for me my friend and and me for you. |
And he’s fighting for Canada, he’s fighting for France. |
He’s fighting for the U.S.A., |
and he’s fighting for the Russians, |
and he’s fighting for Japan, |
and he thinks we put an end to war this way. |
And he’s fighting for democracy, |
he’s fighting for the Reds. |
He says it’s for the peace of all. |
He’s the one who must decide, |
who’s to live and who’s to die, |
and he never sees the writing on the wall. |
But without him, how would Hilter kill the people at Dachau, |
without him Caesar would have stood alone. |
He’s the one who gives his body as a weapon of the war, |
and without him all this killing can’t go on. |
He’s the universal soldier and he really is to blame, |
his orders come from far away, no more. |
They come from here and there, and you and me, |
and brothers, can’t you see, |
this is not the way we put an end end to war. |
