In another time in another place

Carry the flag a picture of disgrace

South pacific soldier mountain-moving men



Children turn away

Just before the blast

Falling to the floor

And praying for the last time



Time to remember and lay another wreath

Blowing down kisses to my lover dead beneath

South pacific sailor movie-making men



Children turn away

Just before the blast

Falling to the floor

And praying for the last time



High above the church tower paint my house black

Move out to the country and never lookin back

South pacific soldier mountain-moving men
