Upon a time it was duty and expected to trip off to war
With the threat of a wickedness from somewhere might come
It will darken your door and make sonless mothers of many
For the price of a life you'd be sure, two every penny
There's a life at the end of the war
If you like I'll still marry you then
There's a light at the end of the war.
I hope it's you.
In the time of a war hold your faith grab your steel be ready.
Know your plan from the land grow what you can, feed the many
You can be sure what you're told is a lie, Propaganda peddled
We'll have you home from the war boys, it's certain, with I'll the trimmings
There's a life at the end of the war
If you like I'll still marry you then
There's a light at the end of the war.
I hope it's you.
So, your journey has begun, you arrive, land, sea or fly in on silken
And the faces you'll see are like yours, but you're expected to kill them.
Make no mistake if you don't you be dust swirling and spinning
Whilst your girl is at home baking cakes and pressing the linen.
Steal a smoke tell a joke but inside you're shaking and screaming
If the fears in your mind were to chime it would leave their ears ringing.
Come on boys it the time stand in line, the trenches we're leaving
Every ounce of you torn to believing we're fighting some evil.
There's a life at the end of the war
If you like I'll still marry you then
There's a light at the end of the war.
I hope it's you.
Now in time we'll look back and remember all of the fallen
Surely now we can learn and take back some of the grieving
But around this blue world, people bicker, barrack and beat us
Who can blame them with 24 hours of media to feed us
Till we strive for the stars and not just mars and realise its meaning
Only then will there be peace in this would free of supernatural leanings
I'm not against Mr Jones having faith in his Sunday school readings
But mankind has a bind and we need to see the future clearly.
There's a life at the end of the war
If you like I'll still marry you then
There's a light at the end of the war.
I hope it's you.
