Soldier on Tom Lyrics

We gave them an inch and they took a mile.
We let it happen, just stood by and wore a complacent smile.
We did nothing and we let them take it all.
Now it's too late and I feel we're heading for a fall.
We're in their way now and the lines are drawn,
to the front line men, is the call.
Goodbye, good luck boys, or should I say, sacrificial p***s.
Soldiers or p***s?
To the generals you're all the same boys,
to them it was just a game.
Never mind son soldier on.
Soldier on, soldier on, soldier on, soldier on, soldier on.
And men will die and countries will fall.
We've made a mistake now that could mean the end of it all,
no time to build a wall.
But Tommy's too young and he's not yet ready to die,
and Tommy's too young and he's just got to survive.
Got to try and stay alive.
Fear's the worst that he has to face,
I can see that by the look upon his face.
While we watch this concluding part of this saga that is tearing us apart.
Soldiers and p***s to the Generals you're all the same boys,
to them it was just a game.
Lets soldier on.
Soldier on, soldier on, soldier on, soldier on, soldier on.
Soldiers and p***s? To the Generals you're all the same boys.
To them it was just a game. Soldier on.
Soldier on, soldier on, soldier on, soldier on, soldier on Tom.
