Soldiers
Left
Soldiers marching one by one
Right
Every soldier holds a gun.
Left
Soldiers like paper dolls
Right
Blindly listen to the call.
Right Face
All lined up in a row
Close Ranks March
Will not stop for wind or snow.
Forward March
Stomp, stomp, through the town
Left
Brave soldiers give no ground.
Right
Noble soldiers in the fight
Left
Do not stop to see what's right.
Right
People start to run away
Left
Soldiers hunger for a fray.
Halt
Shouts of anger fill the land
Present Arms
Battle is close at hand.
Fire at will
Soldiers do not hear the scream
In this battle, they are supreme.
Even children start to fall
Only one man sees at all.
'Stop!' he cries, to no avail
Soldiers determined not to fail.
Man falls to his knees
Soldiers deaf to his pleas.
Bloody battle now complete
Man does not rise to feet.
Crimson badge upon his chest
Fate of a traitor now confessed.
Right Shoulder Arms
Soldiers blind to what is right
Move out into the night.
About Face
Forward March
