You missed the start of the football
My rifle had a stoppage
I’m sleeping in this hole in the ground
You in your picturesque cottage
Tonight you will dine with your daughter
Il be happy to get some water
My corporal was killed today
You just moan about your pay
Crawling to your boss about your ambition
I just need more ammunition
So go polish your BMW
You don’t see the real world around you
Enjoy your bar meals and dates
I’m happy here with my Battalion mates.
