Without death, bloodshed and suffering wars are never won br And only hatred and grief survives when the fighting is done br And war heroes honoured in every war street parade br By war men the memories of war not allowed for to fade br The politicians the praises of the war dead do sing br Their politicizing of war for sake of power not an honourable thing br For God, Flag and Country and National Pride br Far too many good young people in wars have died br one war leads to another war as the wise one did say br And millions for patriotism in wars with their lives do pay br For the sake of war the war men create us against they br And for the love of a flag the young and brave die in wars today br And on Rememberance Day the war men parade up and down br In a show of patriotism through the streets of the town.
