Remember the brave ones with the blackened face Digging the trenches for the human race Remember the brave ones with sandy eyes Storming the beach head hear the battle cry Mow them down
The European fields and the coastal sands Ran wet and warm where warriors had spilled The Christian sacrifice must never happen again The search began to find a cleaner way to kill
Remember the brave ones who flew the skies Dropping their gifts down in the passers-by Deliver to London and to Dresden town Let the buildings and rubble be their sleeping gown Blow them up
The European fields and the coastal sands Ran wet and warm where warriors had spilled The Christian sacrifice must never happen again The search began to find a cleaner way to kill
Remember the brave ones when the button is down In an office in Moscow or Washington And the faceless features of a child unborn To a civilisation that wouldn't learn To forget the brave ones and let them lie Let their death moan be a warning cry Of a battle that burns up like a million suns Where there are no heroes and there are no brave ones
