We're taught from boyhood on to sing the anthems They are fight songs And now the songs we sing, jingoistic melody are Fight songs So what's this all about? Just follow orders, son, and march, son, die, son Well you've got the will to choose The fights you take make sure that it's the right one Your God, Your Oath, your friends your family What will you die for? Your car, your house, ikea furniture Is this what life's worth? Steel up your gaze, square up your back and on the left, march right march Into the jaws of jagged steel straight back we left march right march Since the days, of lance and bow scared men have left marched right marched For their god, their king, their city-state they left marched right marched Your flag, ideal, your revolution What will you die for? Your life, a gift, but only worth it if it's what you've lived for It's not worth living for if it's not worth dying for It's not worth dying for if it's not worth living for Do not go quietly into that good night But rage, rage, rage against the dying of the light
