[Verse 1]
'I fought hard in the Second World War'
You hear them shout
No good bragging about the Afrika Korps
It was Beadle's About
[Pre-Chorus]
They dressed you up took you off to World War One
Armed you and surrounded you with wire
Sat in stinking mud you sung your stupid songs
And waited till they told you when to fire
[Chorus]
'Cause the rulers always laugh
At a video bloodbath
Nothing makes them laugh
Like a video bloodbath
[Verse 2]
From the First World War to the Yom-Kippur
It was Beadle's About
The bayonets slice, the rockets roar
And he jumps out
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Fond memories of the bloody bridge you failed to hold
Many of your buddies killed or maimed
You would've shot at rabbits if that's what you'd been told
Till the General said 'I'm sorry, you've been framed'
'I fought hard in the Second World War'
You hear them shout
No good bragging about the Afrika Korps
It was Beadle's About
[Pre-Chorus]
They dressed you up took you off to World War One
Armed you and surrounded you with wire
Sat in stinking mud you sung your stupid songs
And waited till they told you when to fire
[Chorus]
'Cause the rulers always laugh
At a video bloodbath
Nothing makes them laugh
Like a video bloodbath
[Verse 2]
From the First World War to the Yom-Kippur
It was Beadle's About
The bayonets slice, the rockets roar
And he jumps out
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Fond memories of the bloody bridge you failed to hold
Many of your buddies killed or maimed
You would've shot at rabbits if that's what you'd been told
Till the General said 'I'm sorry, you've been framed'
