This Means War

(You get your head down, will you)



I want you to march



Eyes go right, shoulder arms

Left wheel turn, show your charms

Change your clothes, cut your hair

Ain't no joke, ain't no place for kids

When the flags are high, hear the battle cry

Treaty gone, see the bandits fly

Dig the trench, watch that blast

Shell shock come, coming fast



Name and rank on parade

Might get laid by a hand grenade

Do you know what it means?

This - means - war



This means war, this means war

I said this means war, this means war

This means war



(Run for cover, hit the deck, call for your mother)



I need you to fire



Cock your gun, wet your sights

Get the bull dead to rights

Volunteers, one pace back

On the beach ain't no place for kids

When the flack is high on a bomber run

You don't talk back to an ack-ack gun

Fire range, and you're in the blitz

Keep your head or you're blown to bits



Name and rank on parade

Might get laid by a hand grenade

Do you know what it means?

This - means - war



Who's going there, is it a friend or foe?

Propaganda time on the radio

Top brass shout as they clown around

Peace talks die in Geneva town



Do you know what it means?

This - means - war



This means war, this means war

I said this means war, this means war

This means war
