Universal Soldier (1966) — текст песни (Chumbawamba)

He`s five feet two and he`s six feet four
He fights with missiles and with spears
He`s all of thirty-one and he`s always seventeen
He`s been a soldier for a thousand years
He`s fighting for Britain and he`s fighting for Iraq
He`s fighting for the USA
He`s fighting for the Russians and he`s fighting for Japan
And he thinks he`ll put an end to war this way
He`s fighting for democracy he`s fighting for the reds
He says he`s for the peace of all
He`s the one who must decide who`s to live and who`s to die
And he never sees the writing on the wall
But without him how would Hitler have condemned him at Le Val
Without him Caesar would have stood alone
He`s the one who gives his body as the weapon of the war
And without him all this killing can`t go on
He`s the universal soldier
He really is to blame
His sword has come from far away no more
They come from you and me
And brothers / sisters can`t you see
This is not the way we put an end to war?
