lyrics

Hey! Hey! Soldier! x2

Phil -

chorus - Gone its gone, my friend is gone / gone its gone, all hope is lost / (woah woah) / (woah woah) / (woah woah) / lost so many military (woah woah)

Hey! Hey! Soldier!

Polack - Atom bomb drops its total annihilation / how could I be forced into this barren wasteland? / stripped of my life and given and number / now I'm filled with fear of being six feet under / how many have come? how many will fall? / when will we ever see the end of it all?

chorus

bridge - Things aren't the way they seem / nation wants to see me bleed / imperialism is a killing dream / whatever happened to keepin the peace? x 2 (chant : waoh waoh waoh waoh) x 1 (chant: we're sick of it)

Hey! Hey! Soldier! x 3

Evan - My brother, whats up? / seems like its been forever / your times almost up, four years later / the service was an option when you felt like you had none / sometimes you feel stuck, sometimes fathers don't act right / serve your sentence, sail the seven seas / til you come back home my heart is where you'll be / know that I love you, family / ain't done yet over ten years deep

chorus
