The Very Old Man lyrics
|
Artist - Hum
Album - You'd Prefer an Astronaut
Lyrics - The Very Old Man
Led to the slaughter, your life in their hands
Destroying maiming at will
Spread all around, deep in the group
Trenches for corpses to fill
Advance to attack - Forward to death no retreat
Onward they charge - Running blind to defeat
Battlefield graveyard bodies pile high
Laid to rest where they fall
Merciless war which they had fought
They showed no mercy at all
Advance to attack - Forward to death no retreat
Onward they charge - Running blind to defeat
Another assault - Counter attack
Half the battalions gone
Numbers decreased masses deceased
The mindless killing goes on
Advance to attack - Forward to death no retreat
Onward they charge - Running blind to defeat
