*** The Casualties *** 'Marching Joe'
Oh, oh, oh... Joe is out of school, didn't fucking ask for much Couldn't get a job, the marines his last hope Down at the frontline, with a gun not a toy Kill many men, not asking what for !
Oh, oh, oh... Joes family, the comrades next to him Die one by one, his time is running out Joe wrote back home his parents unemployed The rich are fucking laughing making profits from the war
Oh, oh, oh... Oh, oh, oh...
Joe is off to die, for another senseless war No arms, no legs - His mother cries at home Joey wears the flag so proud to fight for us And for a government, that doesn't give a fuck
Marching to the left, marching to the righ Marching on the frontline, what a fucking sight
Marching to the left, marching to the right Marching on the frontline, what a way to die
Joey, Joey, Joey tell me what you see now Joey, Joey, Joey please come back home now
Marching to the left, marching to the righ Marching on the frontline, what a fucking sight
Marching to the left, marching to the right Marching on the frontline, what a way to die |
