Sacrifice

Can you hear the war cry? It's time to enlist The people speak as one The cattle, the crowd Those too afraid to live Demand a sacrifice They demand a sacrifice They demand a sacrifice Can you smell their stinking breath? Listen to them Wheezing and gasping and Chanting their slogans It's the gravedigger's song Demanding a sacrifice Demanding a sacrifice Demanding a sacrifice Of your life A sacrifice Of your life Can you see the fresh blood? Steaming into the soil As our patriots Fathers, mothers and lovers Admire the military style Praising God and State Crying tears of pride For all the fools slaughtered For the maimed, the dying And the dead So the nation will live So the people will remain as cattle They demand a sacrifice They demand a sacrifice Of your life They demand a sacrifice They demand a sacrifice Of your life They demand a sacrifice A sacrifice Of your life A sacrifice They want your life Sacrifice
