Once I Was A Soldier
once I was a soldier
who had to keep the peace
guardian of the state
in a world full of dangers
I stood guard in the snow
I thought about the canteen
and that breathless night
with the good whore Martine
I went to her house
I didn't have to pay much
around her neck she wore a cross
as a shield against vandals
she asked what can I do
to please my boy
I got a kiss from her
then I dared to ask
dear tiger, I'll give you everything
but put on your whore's clothes
to look at
then I won't going down
I said no one loves me
with tears in my eyes
it's society's fault
I work cheated by everyone
when I was a boy was
nobody wanted to play with me
I was the last in the class
that's why I go to brothels
she sang me a song
of the forgiveness of sins
she quenched my sorrow
and licked my wounds
dear tiger, I give you everything
but put on your whore's clothes
to look at
then I will not perish
dear tiger, I will give you everything
but put on your whore's clothes
to look at
then I will not perish (3x)
