I have never fired a gun
Laid down my life for anyone
And I have never lost a son..

From tenement to sink estate
Comes with post to boys that wait
Swept out by the Queen and state..

Were you there in the chapel
Singing “Glory halle-lu”
Let common sense prevail
For they know not what they do.

Lose the boy, make the man
See the world in jagged land
Face down in the desert sand..

Bang the drum and draw the veil
For Helmand and for Passchendaele,
For Helmand and for Passchendaele..

Take a side if you want to
From the safety of your bed
Let the fingers be parted
But let glory grieve instead.

Were you there in the chapel
Singing “Glory halle-lu”
Let the nonsense prevail
For they know not what they do

Take a side if you want to
From the safety of your bed
Let the fingers be parted
But let glory grieve instead.

I have never fired a gun
Laid down my life for anyone
And I have never lost a son..

In let the glory grieve instead, I hear "let the glory claim us dead", but it's sometimes difficult to understand what he's saying. Thanks for the lyrics :)
