We were ordered by military law To elope, even before our boat had hit the shore The bullets knocked us about, thats for sure Dead cobbers scattered adrift, from the infantrys 1st corp Now some mates from my own platoon, 1, 2, 3 now 4 Nobody should ever have to witness such gore Did not matter if you were rich or poor You were just a target, in this almighty war If the politicians demanded, they would easily send more Finally, the west encircled the mad beast, with a rambunctious roar But they let the Reds go forth, who savaged all the women, like a wild boar What was the main aim and what was the true meaning, deep down at its core, for this unholy friggin’ war?
