March through the mist when the armies enlist

All the children who fight for their older

They storm through the night in a half state of fright

Their future is strapped to their shoulder

They battle their shadows on the wall

They jump when the major gives the call

They fight for their freedom, their country don't need'em

The war will eventually kill'em all



They live for tomorrow in agony and sorrow

And learning that the strongest will survive

They're dodging for cover, they scream for their mother

They struggle just to keep themselves alive



The children of the infants corps

Don't know what they've been fighting for

They're only young, they know they've paid the price

Their innocence unselfishness

And all in all defencelessness

The government has made the sacrifice



Who's responsible for the Infantry Corps

Who's responsible for the Infantry Corps



Young bodies are lying everywhere

Lifeless but no one seems to care

Hooray for the children, the country just killed'em

The blame's here for everyone to share



The children of the infants corps

Don't know what they've been fighting for

They're only young, they know they've paid the price

Their innocence unselfishness

And all in all defencelessness

The government has made the sacrifice



The Infantry, the Infantry,

You're in the Infantry Corps,

The Infantry
