My Last Thought On The Battlefield - by Joe Wood (2010)
By Joe Wood on Wed, 09/01/2010 - 11:55am |Who is the first to cry
Over a flood of spoiled meat
When we've buttoned up their coats and flak-jackets
Who is willing to die in the street
When you're passing up the barracks
In a comfortable seat
Seeing the roadside isn't drying blood
No more
Firing nothing
When the Fallujah bridge is empty
Who is willing to be alone
At war
Say your'e thirsty, say you're tired, say you want to go home
Who'll be the first one for the sky to take
Fly me away, like a flag
Oh, mother country
Who will be the last to die for a mistake
