boys dug in - great australian bank lyrics
cognac in the morning, and
caviar at the briefing
all aboard, afloat in the aegean
hamilton, birdwood, braithwaite
bestir themselves from bedsheets
to arrange men in the thrall of fighting
for god, king and country
statuesque to the end
blood and dew fill in the trench
more and more to the maw
what to do but carry on?
the lines of aimed lee enfields, and
hills hung over anzac
or the jagged jaws of the beartrap
shake like ares’ shoulders
atop, a teenage soldier
stands*to, bated*breath, awaiting orders
if only he could see it:
his name on an rsl plaquette
statuesque to the end
blood and dew fill in the trench
more and more to the maw
what to do but carry on?
you say service is the pinnacle of duty
and our heroes are born in the fray
but it was only ever for a white digger
statuesque to the end
blood and dew fill in the trench
more and more to the maw
what to do but carry on?
