Disposable Heroes

Bodies fill the fields
I see, hungry heroes end
No one to play soldier now,
no one to pretend running blind through killing fields,
bred to kill them all
Victim of what said should be a servant `til I fall

Chorus:
Soldier boy, made of clay
now an empty shell
twenty one, only son
but he served us well
Bred to kill, not to care
just do as we say
finished here, Greeting Death
he's yours to take away
Back to the front
you will do what I say, when I say
Back to the front
you will die when I say, you must die
Back to the front
you coward
you servant
you blindman

Barking of machinegun fire,
does nothing to me now sounding of the clock that ticks,
get used to it somehow
More a man, more stripes you bare,
glory seeker trends bodies fill the fields
I see the slaughter never ends

Chorus:
Soldier boy, made of clay
now an empty shell
twenty one, only son
but he served us well
Bred to kill, not to care
just do as we say
finished here, Greeting Death
he's yours to take away
Back to the front
you will do what I say, when I say
Back to the front
you will die when I say, you must die
Back to the front
you coward
you servant
you blindman

Why, Am I dying?
Kill, have no fear
Lie, live off lying
Hell, Hell is here
I was born for dying
Life planned out before my birth, nothing could
I say had no chance to see myself, moulded day by day
Looking back
I realize, nothing have
I done left to die with only friend
Alone I clench my gun

Chorus:
Soldier boy, made of clay
now an empty shell
twenty one, only son
but he served us well
Bred to kill, not to care
just do as we say
finished here, Greeting Death
he's yours to take away
Back to the front
you will do what I say, when I say
Back to the front
you will die when I say, you must die
Back to the front
you coward
you servant
you blindman
