|
Never, never, never again |
|
Will Tommy die for you |
|
Over the top the unknown go |
|
Into a land where no man lives |
|
Say goodbye to his friends |
|
Cause they will never see Tommy again |
|
General, general on the top of the hill |
|
Middle class man whose blood won't spill |
|
Kept out of the action, out of harm's way |
|
Cause he's gonna find that Tommy's dead |
|
Never, never, never again |
|
War is over so they say |
|
How many Tommys died that day |
|
Now it's over count the cost |
|
A ring of roses for those that lost |
|
A place in history is what they've got |
|
For what they paid it's not a lot |
|
Medals and statues are no compensation |
|
For working class heros who died for you |
|
Never, never, never again |
|
Will Tommy die for you |
|
Over the top the unknown go |
|
Into a land where no man lives |
|
Say goodbye to his friends |
|
Cause they will never see Tommy again |
|
General, general on the top of the hill |
|
Middle class man whose blood won't spill |
|
Kept out of the action, out of harm's way |
|
Cause he's gonna find that Tommy's dead |
