Soldier - Angelic Upstarts
In a station in the city a british soldier stood
Talking to the people there if the people would
Some just stared in hatred and others turned in pain
And the lonely british soldier wished
He was back home again
Come join the british
Army said the posters in his town
See the world and have your come serve before the Crown
The jobs were hard to come by
And could not face the dole
So he took his country's shilling and enlisted on the roll
But there was no fear of fighting the empire long was lost
Just ten years in the army getting paid for being bossed
Then leave a man experienced a man who's made the grade
A medal and a pension some mem'ries and a trade
Then came the call to
Ireland as the call had came before
Another bloody chapter in an endless civil war
The priests they stood on both
Sides the priests they stood behind
Another fight in
Jesus's name the blind against the blind
The soldier stood between them
Between the whistling stones
And then the broken bottles that led to broken bones
The petrol bombs that burnt
His hands the nails that pierced his skin
And now wished that he'd stayed at home
Surrounded by his kin
The station filled
With people the soldier soon was bored
But better in the station than where the people warred
The room filled up with mothers
With daughters and with sons
Who stared with itchy fingers at the soldier and his gun
A yell of fear a screech of brakes the shattering of glass
The window of the station broke to let the package pass
A scream came from the mothers as they ran towards the door
Dragging children crying from the bomb upon the floor
The soldier stood
And could not move his gun he could not use
He knew the bomb had seconds and not minutes on the fuse
He could not run to pick it up and throw it in the street
There were far too many people
There too many running feet
Take cover yelled the soldier Take cover for your lives
And the Irishmen threw down their
Young and stood before their wives
They turned towards
The soldier their eyes alive with fear
For God's sake save children
They'll end their short lives here
The soldier moved towards the bomb his stomach like a stone
Why was this his battle God why was he alone
He lay down on the package and he murmured one farewell
To those at home in England to those he loved so well
He saw the sights of summer felt the wind upon his brow
The young girls in the city parks
How precious were they now
The soaring of the swallow the beauty of the swan
The music of the turning world so soon would it be gone
A muffled soft explosion and the room began to quake
The soldier blown across the floor
His blood a crimson lake
They never heard him cry
Or shout never heard him moan
And they turned their children's faces from
The blood and from the bones
The crowd outside soon gathered and the ambulances came
To carry off the body of a pawn lost to the game
And the crowd they clapped and cheered
And they sang their rebel songs
One soldier less to interfere where he did not belong
But will the children growing up learn at their mothers knees
The story of that soldier who bought their liberty
Who used his youthful body as a means towards the end
Who gave his life to those who called him murderer not friend
