Bunker Soldiers Lyrics

Trained bodies in coordination

Is that a better way for bunker soldiers

But it's a nicer way to spend a war

On lava beaches and sandy seaside

The rusting bodies are surplus now then

We never taught them how to fight like that

The object's exercise is so compulsive

It's not a better way but it still suits us

I'd give up rice fields to fight like you

It's not a better way

Though we are here to stay

Well that might seem OK

Waves of people

In strange directions

It's no use talking

There's no decisions

They gave up houses to be refugees

the mud in ditches is over their knees

The sand bagged trenches are over our heads

This kind of warfare's become hide and seek

Though khaki uniforms are universal

Your propaganda is losing appeal

I'd give up rice fields to fight like you

I'd give up rice fields to fight like you

Well that might seem OK
