He said he wanted to be a good soldier
He said he wanted to fight - be a hero
Military costumes
In the magazines
Marching to the drums
Make real his wildest dreams
Its so dramatic
We'll lead you to victory
Its so exciting
Don't want to turn back now
Forward into battle
Face the enemy
Young ambitious men go marching
Onto victory
So far away - fire away!
The blazing colours of battle attracted
He'll win a medal for his victory
Aiming at the front line
He is not afraid
Shooting at the men
Like ducks upon a range
He said he wanted to be a great soldier
He said he wanted to fight like his heroes
When you take the sunshine
You must take the rain
When you kill the wrong man
You must take the blame
So far away - fire away!
