(Verlaine)

Soldier boy stands at a full salute.

He wants your orders to execute.

Send him out - 'neath the screaming red lights

In a narrow ditch for the funny fights.

Foxhole, foxhole too much danger

Where's my guardian angel - oh no

You show me the war, I don't know what for.

You show me the war but the war 's such a bore.

In the line of duty, in the line of fire

A heartless heart is my proper attire.

The flashing sword has been explored

The perfect slice - perfect slice of life.

I feel the shells hit - Moonlight web

Goodbye arms, so long, head.

No more danger

Hello guardian angel.

Pin me down, go ahead it's a cinch

You pin me down, you'll feel the pinch

I was trained for fights

Foxhole, foxhole

Foxhole, foxhole.
