[00:12.19] |
He's five feet two and he's six feet four |
[00:16.77] |
He fights with missiles and with spears |
[00:22.10] |
He's all of 31 and he's only 17 |
[00:27.29] |
He's been a soldier for a thousand years |
[00:31.30] |
He's a Catholic, a Hindu, an atheist, a Jain |
[00:37.55] |
a Buddhist and a Baptist and a Jew |
[00:41.76] |
and he knows he shouldn't kill |
[00:44.74] |
and he knows he always will |
[00:47.37] |
kill you for me my friend and me for you |
[00:52.43] |
And he's fighting for Canada |
[00:55.30] |
he's fighting for France |
[00:57.65] |
he's fighting for the USA |
[01:01.96] |
and he's fighting for the Russians |
[01:04.91] |
and he's fighting for Japan |
[01:07.31] |
and he thinks we'll put an end to war this way |
[01:11.95] |
And he's fighting for Democracy |
[01:15.20] |
he's fighting for the Reds |
[01:17.48] |
He says it's for the peace of all |
[01:22.10] |
He's the one who must decide |
[01:24.68] |
who's to live and who's to die |
[01:27.90] |
and he never sees the writing on the walls |
[01:31.99] |
But without him how would Hitler have |
[01:34.87] |
condemned him at Dachau |
[01:36.96] |
Without him Caesar would have stood alone |
[01:41.26] |
He's the one who gives his body |
[01:43.68] |
as a weapon to a war |
[01:46.57] |
and without him all this killing can't go on |
[01:50.83] |
He's the universal soldier |
[01:53.67] |
and he really is to blame |
[01:55.91] |
His orders come from far away no more |
[02:00.37] |
They come from him, and you, and me |
[02:03.81] |
and brothers can't you see |
[02:07.35] |
this is not the way we put an end to war. |
