Across your face that shattered look Of memories that flood the mind Served up on TV, film and book Bitter testament of mankind They can keep their propaganda And their glorious farce of war My life isn't their's to squander Like that of those who died before You wear your medals oh so proud For you did serve your country well Told to proclaim your bravery loud There was no glory, only hell Lest we forget who gave their lives Those who fought so we'd be free Those who were conned by ancient lies You'll make no murderer of me I'll bear no arms for your rat race See through the army boys pretence I won't betray the human race Leaping to the system's defence
