Butchers Tale (Western Front 1914) |
Odessey and Oracle |
Butcher’s Tale (Western Front 1914) |
A butcher yes that was my trade |
But the king’s shilling is now my fee |
A butcher I may as well have stayed |
For the slaughter that I see |
And the preacher in his pulpit |
Sermon: «Go and fight, do what is right» |
But he don’t have to hear these guns |
And I’ll bet he sleeps at night |
And I |
And I can’t stop shaking |
My hands won’t stop shaking |
My arms won’t stop shaking |
My mind won’t stop shaking |
I want to go home |
Please let me go home |
Go home |
And I have seen a friend of mine |
Hang on the wire |
Like some rag toy |
Then in the heat the flies come down |
And cover up the boy |
And the flies come down in |
Gommecourt, Thiepval, |
Mametz Wood, and French Verdun |
If the preacher he could see those flies |
Wouldn’t preach for the sound of guns |
And I |
And I can’t stop shaking |
My hands won’t stop shaking |
My arms won’t stop shaking |
My mind won’t stop shaking |
I want to go home |
Please let me go home |
Go home |
