I Bury the Living Lyrics
[01:35.28] A wretched outcast with no point of view
[01:39.86] What could I do?
[01:41.89] Just military servants
[01:45.18]
[01:47.57] I carry out the powerful vulgarian view
[01:53.75] I scatter glue
[01:56.98] Do as I say or I scatter you
[02:00.74] Oh, no, no, no, no, no
[02:06.32] You can't blame me
[02:09.22] I'm just an innocent soldier
[02:11.68] There would be no war if not for me
[02:16.17] I'm just a sweet little soldier
[02:19.64] No, no, no, no, no
[02:23.06] You can't blame me
[02:26.25] I'm just an innocent soldier
[02:27.64] Give me an order, I'll blow up a border
[02:32.60] Give me an order, I'll blow up your daughter
[02:37.22]
[02:53.76] Call me brave, call me a peace-making hero
[02:59.81] Call me anything except what I am
[03:04.97]
[03:11.67] From a class without, I haven't a clue
[03:15.13] What the war is about
[03:18.78] I haven't got a clue, have you?
[03:24.21] Oh no, no, no, no
[03:27.84] You can't blame me
[03:30.42] I'm just an innocent soldier
[03:32.91] There would be no war if not for me
[03:38.16] I'm just a sweet little soldier
[03:41.26] No, no, no, no, no
[03:44.35] You can't blame me
[03:47.21] After all I'm just
[03:49.37] Honour, mad, cannon fodder
[03:53.42] Honour, mad, cannon fodder
[03:57.29] And honour, mad, cannon fodder
[04:01.13] And honour, mad, cannon fodder
[04:05.22] And honour, mad, cannon fodder (honour, mad, cannon fodder)
[04:10.57] And honour, mad, cannon fodder (honour, mad, cannon fodder)
[04:16.49] And honour, mad, cannon fodder (honour, mad, cannon fodder)
[04:19.60] Honour, mad, cannon fodder (honour, mad, cannon fodder)
[04:21.61] Honour, mad, cannon fodder (honour, mad, cannon fodder)
[04:25.72] Duty done by the moment at hand
[04:29.52] I am answerable only to Jesus
[04:34.40]
[04:39.00] And with the grace of God
[04:41.69] I will die in my own bed
[04:44.96] If you wonder what's in my head
[04:47.86] It's just the hatred for all human life
[04:51.84] When I lose mine, my mother will say:
[04:55.32] "He died doing the job he loved"
[04:58.27] But I died with a bullet to the forehead
[05:02.01] That wasn't the job I loved
[05:05.62] That wasn't the job I loved
[05:07.54] That wasn't the job I loved
[05:10.63]
[05:19.44] Funny how the war goes on
[05:22.61] Without our John, without our John
[05:27.50]
[05:32.85] It's funny how the war goes on
[05:35.78] Without our John, without our John
[05:41.47]
[06:01.33] Funny how the war goes on
[06:04.86] Without our John, without our John
[06:10.85] It's funny how the war goes on
[06:15.99] Without John, without our John
[06:20.23]
