Yes, I was there Because like many of you I have been there Charging into shot and shell The stench of blood and **** permeates the air Do you really think death is so quick and clean? No, no , hold your mate while he's crying for his mum Pick up the mangled guts while you tell him it's OK Yes. Cry for him today for its not an unmanly thing to cry For when tomorrows battle joins It might be my time to die

I Was There
Yes, I was there Because like many of you I have been there Charging into shot and shell The stench of blood and **** permeates the air Do you really think death is so quick and clean? No, no , hold your mate while he's crying for his mum Pick up the mangled guts while you tell him it's OK Yes. Cry for him today for its not an unmanly thing to cry For when tomorrows battle joins It might be my time to die
