Remember The Brave Ones

Remember the brave ones with the blackened face

Digging the trenches for the human race

Remember the brave ones with the sanded eyes

Storming the beach-head, hear the battle cry

Mow them down, mow them down.

The European fields and the coastal sands

Ran wet and warm where warriors had spilled

This 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 on the passers-by

Deliver to London and to Dresden Town

Let the buildings and rubble be their sleeping gown

Blow them up, blow them up.

The European cities and European towns

Ran wet and warm where peaceful people spilled

This Christian sacrifice must never happen again

The search began to find

A cleaner way to kill

Remember the brave ones

With the button is down

In a shelter in Moscow or in Washington

And the faceless features of a life unborn

To a civilisation that wouldn't live to learn

To forget the brave ones and let them lie

Let their death moans be the warning cry

Of a battle that burns up like a million suns

Where there are no heroes

And there are no brave ones

Forget the brave ones

Forget the brave ones
