Armalite, street lights, nightsights

Searching the roofs for a sniper, a viper, a fighter

Death in the shadows he'll maim you, he'll wound you, he'll kill you

For a long forgotten cause, on not so foreign shores

Boys baptised in wars

Morphine, chill scream, bad dream

Your flesh will always creep, tossing turning sleep

The wounds that burn so deep

Your mother sits on the edge of the world

When the cameras start to roll

Panoramic viewpoint resurrect the killing fold

Your father drains another beer, he's one of the few that cares

Crawling behind a Saracen's hull from the safety of his living room chair
A5
Forgotten sons, forgotten sons, forgotten sons
A5
And so as I patrol in the valley of the shadow of the tricolour
A5
I must fear evil, for I am but mortal and mortals can only die
A5
Asking questions, pleading answers from the nameless faceless watchers
A5
That stalk the carpeted corridors of Whitehall
A5
Who orders desecration, mutilation, verbal masturbation
A5
I in the guarded bureaucratic wombs
A5
Minister, minister care for your children, order them not into damnation
A5
To eliminate those who would trespass against you
A5 Am A5
For whose is the kingdom, the power, the glory forever and ever, Amen, Amen,
Dm
Amen, Amen, Amen
N.C. Dm
Halt who goes there, Death, approach friend
