Lyrics:
Listen!
The sweet peals of moonlight-induced lovemaking on the streets tonightListen!
The soft purr of motorbikes
Ready to strike up the night alightSo don’t tell me of your troubles, your emotional grief
Take in the sights this is shore leave
Don’t talk of true love, unscrew your frown
Enjoy the entertainments of nighttime townExperience the red rooms, the green tables, the souvenirs
Make memories, haunting or fabled
The gallant mist of red blooded chivalry
Instilled in basic trainingBy standing in line today
You secure a place among the saints
Go get them son
Now your life beginsTo die for your country does not win a war
To kill for your country is what wins a warDon’t tell your name, don’t ask for hers
In this land of oysters, you are the world
The painless, plainness of military life
Resumes tomorrow nightIf not for you it would’ve been cholera, malaria
Or some eastern disease
Forget about it, son
A slap is all you needWe did it all, we seen it all
And worse much worse, son
The massacres of ages
Too many to recallLimbs rendered birds by the speed they flew off
A soup nothingness that once was your best friend
Motherless children and temptress widows
The wild, the useless, the dead, the untameableSnivelling fuck, staining this street
Lucky I don’t shoot you on the spot
Bullets were made for men like you
The impotent idiots god forgotTonight you decide which corner takes residence
Which room looms forever in your mind
But now you’re on your own
We don’t need men like youTonight you decide which corner takes residence
Which room looms forever in your mind
But now you’re on your own
We don’t need men like youPrivate Tristan Bongo
