I Know

歌詞

You'd lay your life down for this country Lay it down for fools like me I know, I know, I know you would You'd make the ultimate sacrifice Lose yourself on a throw of the dice I know, I know, I know you would Cos the line you come from stretches back In an unbroken chain other countries lack Every single corner of the world Has seen our banners being unfurled You've won and lost and battled on Whether the cause was right or wrong God knows what you do to the enemy Cos you scare the living hell out of me He'd lay his life down for his country He'd like to kill fools like me I know, I know, I know he would He'd make the ultimate sacrifice Blow himself to paradise I know, I know, I know he would And the line he comes from stretches back In an unbroken chain other countries lack In the farthest corners of the world Where he's watched our banners being unfurled He's won and lost and battled on Whether his cause was right or wrong He's this generation's enemy And he scares the living hell out of me No more war? It's not gonna happen Not while there's men willing to fight in them No more war? It's not gonna happen Not while there's patriotism, Not while there's patriotism, No more war? It's not gonna happen Not while there's some saying That this is the last one, No more war? It's not gonna happen Not while religious nuts Are willing to spill their guts And the line we come from stretches back In an unbroken chain no country lacks To the darkest corner of a cave Where there's a weapon made to stave Or gouge or choke or cut and kill In a hundred years we'll be fighting still I know, I know, I know, I know we will.
