Where dead men lies
I'm paralysed
My brothers'
eyes are gone
And he shall be
buried here
Nameless marks his grave
Mother home
get a telegram and
shed a tear of grief
Mud and blood
in foreign land
trying to understand
Where is this greatness
I've been told
This is the lies
that we been sold
Is this a worthy sacrifice
Great War
and I cannot take more
Great tour
I keep on marching on
I play the great score
There will be no encore
Great War
The war to end all wars
I'm standing here
I'm full of fear
with bodies at my feet
Over there
in the other trench
bullets wear my name
Lead ahead
as the captain said
and show them no remorse
Who am I to understand
what have I become
I do my duties
Pay the price
I'll do the worthy
sacrifice
I know my deeds are
not in vain
Great War
and I cannot take more
Great tour
I keep on marching on
I play the great score
There will be no encore
Great War
The war to end all wars
And feet by feet
we pay the price of
a mile here
Though men are falling
we see heroes rise
We face the heat
as we are fighting
until the dawn
So follow me
and we will write
our own history
Great War
and I cannot take more
Great tour
I keep on marching on
I play the great score
There will be no encore
Great War
The war to end all wars
