In the darkest hour
of a moonless night
a thousand soldiers gather
ready to fight
War ! Just another war !
Chorus :
Silently they move
their muscular bodies
cast no shadows
their bare feet
stir no dust .
In the distance
lightening colours
the night sky
in ominous red
a raven flutters
blindly into the night
startled by a
careless foot .
Chorus:
Silently they move
their muscular bodies
cast no shadows
their bare feet
stir no dust .
War ! Just another war !
Two thousand eyes
gleam with fear
and excitement
and bloodlust
suddenly thousand foot flares
lights up the night sky
tracer bullets and explosions
shatter the silence .
Chorus:
Silently they move
their muscular bodies
cast no shadows
their bare feet
stir no dust .
War ! Just another war !
The blood of a thousand soldiers
colours the desert sand
and as the last battle cry
fades away dawn breaks
and vultures start to feast
a thousand miles away
while the war rages on
the politicians commit adultery
and the citizens
turn a blind eye .
War ! Just another war !
