|
| Oh, send me off to war
|
| With a gun in my hand
|
| But I won’t pull the trigger
|
| Our destiny is here
|
| 'Neath the red, white and blue
|
| So lead me to the slaughter
|
| Now don’t be afraid
|
| Come and join the parade
|
| For the ultimate in sacrifice
|
| It’s an old-fashioned story
|
| Of hope and of glory
|
| A ticket for taking a life
|
| I, I don’t want to be a hero
|
| I don’t want to die for you
|
| I don’t want to be a hero
|
| Oh send me off to war
|
| In a far away land
|
| I never knew existed
|
| Subject me to the truth
|
| To the horror and pain
|
| Until my mind is twisted
|
| And what if I fail
|
| Will you put me in jail
|
| For a murder I will not commit?
|
| 'Cos you don’t understand
|
| Till there’s blood on your hands
|
| That it’s time to forget and forgive
|
| And those who return
|
| Come back only to learn
|
| That they’re hated by those who they love
|
| 'Cos you’re not satisfied
|
| Till a thousand have died
|
| And your anger is paid for in blood |
