Lyrics Last Night Another Soldier - Los Fastidios

Last Night Another Soldier

Last night another soldier, last night another child
No one seems to worry, no one sees his mother cry
Can you see that smart, clean soldier
Standing straight and oh so proud
He wants to fight for Queen and country
He wants to make his family proud
A job with the future, his way to get out of it
It’s his sense of romance, it never ends that way
Last night another soldier, last night another child
No one seems to worry, no one sees his mother cry
They’re just facts and figures on your TV screen
Another child and another soldier, is peace just a dream
In the country strange and foreign all the people resent him
He can’t cope with his problems, all the fears and hatred
Now he wish he never went he wish he never thought of it
It’s not the same as fighting armies looking for the terrorists
They’re just facts and figures…
Can you hear the mocking laughter from the ones that gain by it
They’re not in line for the bullets, they’re the ones who started it
They’re just facts and figures…
Last night another soldier, last night another child
Just a number in the papers, another one of the innocent
They’re just facts and figures.
