~~ Upon Report of War ~~

pawns parade upon tv

transmitted across the world

in real time nothing seems the same

to the pawns on parade

the pawns on parade

the pawns on parade

again.

 

digging in friendly 'tories

the voice on the ground

exclaiming what cannot be explained

to the pawns on parade

the pawns on parade

the pawns on parade

For You And Me.

 

are we meant all sights to see

the winds of war they've always whirled

in real time

YOU ASK

what cannot seem the same

and

I Say

the poor boys on parade

oh, the poor boys on parade

oh, the poor pawns on parade

AGAIN
