You get your head down, will you I I want you I want you to I want you to march
Eyes go right, shoulder arms Left wheel turn, show your charms Change your clothes, cut your hair Ain't no joke, ain't no place for kids When the flags are high, hear the battle cry Treaty gone, see the bandit fly Dig that trench, watch the blast Shell shock come, coming fast
Name and rank on parade Might get laid by a hand grenade Do you know what this means? Do you know what this means? This - means - war
This means war, this means war I said this means war, this means war This means war
Run for cover, hit the deck, call for your mother
I I need you I need you to I need you to fire
Cock your gun, wet your sights Get the bull dead to rights Volunteers, one pace back On the beach ain't no place for kids When the flack is high on a bomber run You don't talk back to an ack-ack gun Fire range, and you're in the blitz Keep your head or you're blown to bits
Name and rank on parade Might get laid by a hand grenade Do you know what it means? Do you know what it means? This - means - war
Who's going there, is it a friend or foe? Propaganda time on the radio Top brass shout as they clown around Peace talks die in Geneva town
Do you know what it means? This means war Do you know what it means? This means war Do you know what it means? This means war Do you know what it means? This means This - means - war
This means war I said this means war, this means war This means war
Where's the second gun? This means war, I told you before, this means war You know the score, said this means war This means war This-means-war You're all dead
