I Bury The Living
Morrissey
Letra

A wretched outcast
With no point of view
What could I do?
Just military servants
I carry out the powerful vulgarian view
I scatter gloom
Do as I say or I'll scatter you

Oh, but no, no, no, no, no, no
You can't blame me
I'm just an innocent soldier
There would be no war
If not for me
I'm just a sweet little soldier
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
You can't blame me
I'm just an innocent soldier
Give me an order!
I'll blow up a border
Give me an order
And I'll blow up your daughter

Call me brave
Call me a peace-making hero
Call me anything except what I am
From a class without
I haven't a clue
What the war is about
I haven't got a clue
Have you?

Oh but no, no, no, no, no, no
You can't blame me
I'm just an innocent soldier
There would be no war
If not for me
I'm just a sweet little soldier
No, no, no, no, no, no
You can't blame me
After all, I'm just honour-mad, cannon-fodder
Honour-mad, cannon-fodder
I?m honour-mad, cannon-fodder
I?m honour-mad, cannon-fodder

Duty done by
The moment at hand
I am answerable
Only to Jesus

And with the grace of God
I will die in my own bed
If you wonder what's in my head
It's just the hatred for all human life

When I lose mine, my mother will say
He died doing the job he loved
But I died with a bullet to the forehead!
That wasn't the job I loved!
That wasn't the job I loved!
That wasn't the job I loved!

It's funny how the war goes on
Without our John
Without our John
It's funny how the war goes on
Without our John
Without our John
La la la la la la la
