Soldier Boy |
Little soldier, plastic pistol |
Aiming for the head |
Now you see me now you don’t |
You missed me, you’re dead |
Laughing, hiding in the bushes |
Scatter for your life |
Little soldier tripped and fell |
Get him with your knife |
Electric eye is loaded |
It shows them it’s okay to kill |
They eventually will |
Mother calls you in for lunch |
Put the war on hold |
Too rough to play with other kids |
How many times you’ve been told |
Laugh at pain it’s silly |
He’d make the soldiers bleed |
Break the flesh, twist the bone |
Bring them to their knees |
You don’t throw stick and stone |
You leave the little girls alone, she said |
First sight of blood at ten |
Fell off the swing and cracked his head |
A still and quiet conscience |
Regardless of their doom |
The victims play, they’re on their way |
Soldier Boy |
No sense they have, of ills to come |
Nor care beyond ills of today |
They’ve lost their way, Soldier Boy |
Playgrounds into battle fields |
Diapers into green and stripes |
Mold plastic into steel, the war is real |
The solders fight tonight |
Little soldier falls once more |
Sees red glow like the sun |
Mother calls him back to |
Arlington, in Washington |
