Paroles de Remember

In the house of the almighty lord
They shall come, the great and small
The have-nots, and the have-it all shall cater
A body from a foreign war
Is draped in flag, the bugle calls
To pray in sorrow, bless the cause
Remember
Shall we not remember?
But would the man from Verdun speak
Of glory as he lays a wreath?
And if the Empire called again, would he defend her?
And what of those who held Madrid
While Roosevelt and England hid
Or those that kept the Athens bridge
Traitored by an allied kiss?
Shall we not remember?
And who believes he came to die
For uniforms where padr‚s hide
To bless the violence from our side
Knowing smaller nations cry
'Thou shalt not kill' - unless of course
The meek shall try and share the earth
With those who found their power at birth
Remember
Shall we not remember?
