Don't Mention The War |
So here we go again |
The old to and fro again |
Backwards and forwards and forwards and backwards |
You can say anything, just don’t say that word |
Play up and play the game |
Changing to stay the same |
Do you remember when? |
No I don’t either |
All this remembering we’re none the wiser |
It’s time to let go and say |
Don’t mention the war |
Don’t talk of those days |
What good is it for? |
Don’t mention the war |
Let history lie |
Kiss the old days goodbye |
They’re no help anymore |
Don’t mention the war |
It may come as some surprise |
I’m told that the sun will rise |
Come and forget all the your wrongs and my wrongs |
Live and let live and let bygones be bygones |
Come join the great charade |
Don’t mention the marmalade |
On with our helmets and back in the trenches |
Sharing a joke with the Tommys and Frenchies |
And just like before we’ll say |
Don’t mention the war |
Don’t talk of those days |
What good is it for? |
Don’t mention the war |
Let history lie |
Kiss the old days goodbye |
They’re no help anymore |
No don’t mention the war |
Don’t mention the war |
Don’t talk of those days |
What good is it for? |
Don’t mention the war |
