child of nations - charge (uk) lyrics
soldiers
he’s a young soldier boy, just eighteen years old
although he hates it, does as he’s told
he has to act bravely, look him right in the eye
but it’s not his fault as another friend dies
all the young soldiers, are they really to blame?
oh no, oh no no no
he’s a young soldier boy, just eighteen years old
although he hates it, he does as he’s told
he has to act bravely, look him straight in the eye
but it’s not his fault as another friend dies
all the young soldier boys, are they really to blame?
oh no, oh no no no no
battles
battles are fought to win or lose
in the struggle of living
soldiers laughing before the dying
for king and country, giving, giving, oh
move up now in lines of three
are you fools with your guns?
up to meet the enemy
a man who never runs away
well let’s all pray for a ceasefire
and let’s love
politician’s a weak man
bumbling, he falls
his long decisions act out
that cold and empty heart
gathers up his velvet coats
he tucks them round his knees
his conscience serves him well
by his empty fireplace
gather up your velvet coats
and order them to battle
but if your conscience serves you well
you can’t k!ll men like cattle, yeah
put down your arms, soldier
get on back home
child of nations
swans are swimming, looking at themselves
in the mirror surface of a silver lake
swans are crying and i think it’s a shame
that the human race just won’t awake and it’s getting late
child of nations, joining their small hands
dance the emptiness, their fathers’ word
the mothers a*crying, crying loud for their suicide
and it’s men who pity but never heard the united word
child of nations, join close in your minds
don’t place your futures in jeopardy
patience is a virtue but to wait any longer
you’ll meet the ruin of all we do and see
and that would be such a pity, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
