Duty, a sense of honor
I am proud to serve my flag
Mandate: protect the locals
Keep this conflict from their back
Bastards, bastards, bastards they were
Without remorse, self justified, eight thousand men were slaughtered.
Madness, madness, madness it was.
Before our eyes, they took their lives and there was nothing we could do
We were abandoned
Promised back up never came
A case of cold shoulder shell shock
Who will be the one to blame?
We're dragged into a snake pit
A den of hungry wolves
Reigning powers play the … blame game
Fools!
Bastards, bastards, bastards they were
Without remorse, self justified, they sought to wash their hands clean.
Madness, madness, madness it was.
Before our eyes, they spread their lies and there was nothing we could do
Scandal! The papers said
And now they're all dead
A case of cold shoulder shell shock
Clearly we are to blame
Bastards, bastards, bastards they were
Without remorse, self justified, eight thousand men were slaughtered.
Madness, madness, madness it was.
Before our eyes, they took their lives and there was nothing we could do
