Testo Don't Wake The Lion

It was the day that war broke out everyone seemed excited while young men boasted and talked of great times dark clouds gathered on the maginot line Sisters and fathers mothers and sons all said goodbye it seemed so much fun we'll be finished my christmas back home by the fire perish the distance the bombs and the wire Don't wake the lion There's a fireworks show tonight everyone's been invited there's mud on faces with frightened white eyes and some won't make it through the thunderous noise Powerful and angry answer the guns all through the night relief never comes it's a criminal deception sets man against man indicting reflection a devious plan don't wake the lion Hear what they're saying come the freeze you'd better hold on tight and while you're praying on your knees prepare to stand and fight Someone keeps saying it's written in a book so keep yourself in line but you're betraying with every nervous look that now it's killing time And from the morning 'till the night we try they said it all would turn out right but they lied yes they lied Too old to die young too big to cry too old to die young to say goodbye Above the raging evening sky will never be the same while necks are straining those hidden eyes shoot out another flame And from the morning 'till the night we try they said it all would turn out right but they lied yes they lied Too old to die young too big to cry too old to die young to say goodbye While the angels sleep tonight some of us will be hoping that someone understands who started this fight thrown down on foreign shores so far out of sight don't wake the lion It was the day that war broke out everyone seemed excited while young men boasted and talked of great times dark clouds gathered it was a change for all time Sisters and fathers mothers and sons all said goodbye it seemed so much fun we'll b efinished by christmas back home by the fire perish the distance the bombs and the wire don't wake the lion
