Death was everywhere In the air and in the sounds Coming off the mounds of Bolton's Ridge Ooh, death's anchorage When you rolled a smoke or told a joke It was in the laughter and drinking water It approached the beach as strings of cutters Dropped into the sea and lay around us Death was in the ancient fortress Shelled by a million bullets From gunners waiting in the copses With hearts that threatened to pop their boxes As we advanced into the sun Death was all and everyone Death was all and everyone As we advancing in the sun As we advancing every man As we advancing in the sun Death hung in the smoke And clung to 400 acres of useless beach front A bank of red earth, dripping down Death is now and now and now Death was everywhere In the air and in the sounds Coming off the mounds of Bolton's Ridge Oh, death's anchorage Death was in the staring sun Fixing its eyes on everyone It rattled the bones of the Light Horsemen Still lying out there in the open As we advancing in the sun As we advancing every man As we advancing in the sun Sing, "Death to all and everyone"
