You must be proud The headlines claim, you won the war And you wear that flag on your lapel, But across your street A teenage girl is leaving school To look after the kids.
He leaves a young wife and a son behind As your mother trails behind the funeral parade. We need our heroes now, The population is losing faith!
I remember shots Of bodies in a long embrace Like they never knew in life. Across your street A teenage girl is leaving school To look after the kids.
He leaves a young wife and a son behind As your mother trails behind the funeral parade. We need our heroes now, The population is losing faith!
