OriginalLa versione più vecchia, così come cantata dal mitragliere c...
WHEN THIS BLOODY WAR IS OVER

When this bloody war is over
Oh, how happy I will be;
When I get my civvy clothes on
No more soldiering for me.

No more church parades on Sunday
No more begging for a pass;
I will tell the Sergeant Major
To stuff his passes up his ass.

I will sound my own reveille
I will beat my own tattoo;
No more NCOs to curse me,
No more fucking Army stew.
WHEN THIS BLOODY WAR IS OVER

When this bloody war is over
oh how happy we will be
when we get our civvy clothes back on
no more soldiering for me

we will really miss our buddies
especially those that fell
we'd been through a lot together
fighting through the fire of hell

when this bloody war is over
there must have been a better way
maybe we can get together
on a bright and peaceful day

no more bombs along the highway
no more rockets in the sky
when we get our civvy clothes back on
a peaceful world we all will try

when this bloody war is over
and the families all unite
talk show gurus can stop talking
on the left and on the right

yes our country stands for freedom
but should another soldier die
war has never been the answer
that generals plan while mothers cry

when this bloody war is over
oh how happy we will be
when we get our civvy clothes on
no more soldiering for me.
