Last Night Another Soldier

Last night another soldier, last night another child
 No one seems to worry, no one sees his mother cry
 Can you see that smart, clean soldier
 Standing straight and oh so proud
 He wants to fight for Queen and country
 He wants to make his family proud
 A job with the future, his way to get out of it
 It's his sense of romance, it never ends that way
 Last night another soldier, last night another child
 No one seems to worry, no one sees his mother cry
 They're just facts and figures on your TV screen
 Another child and another soldier, is peace just a dream
 In the country strange and foreign all the people resent him
 He can't cope with his problems, all the fears and hatred
 Now he wish he never went he wish he never thought of it
 It's not the same as fighting armies looking for the terrorists
 They're just facts and figures on your TV screen
 Another child and another soldier, is peace just a dream
 Can you hear the mocking laughter from the ones that gain by it
 They're not in line for the bullets, they're the ones who started it
 They're just facts and figures on your TV screen
 Another child and another soldier, is peace just a dream
 Last night another soldier, last night another child
 Just a number in the papers, another one of the innocent
 They're just facts and figures on your TV screen
 Another child and another soldier, is peace just a dream
 Last night another soldier
