War War its such a terrible thing
The bombing, the crying, soldiers are dying
Why is this happening?

Gas Gas its killing people!
The choking, the coughing, people are spitting
How is this happening?

Bang Bang my friend is shot
The medics are screaming, I’m grieving, Germans are leaving
Is this really happening?

The only pretty thing to remember
Is the poppies growing in Flanders Fields
That some day the happiness in the fields
Would make us think that the war would finally be over.
