Through the smoke, through the fire
Is the heat and the rain
The soldiers ran for cover. down the drain.
Ambush on the left, battle-roars on their right
The moon was bright in the dead of the night
Looking' down at their final fight ...
Open fire! - shoot to kill!
At sunrise the fires died the bloodshed was over
Young jim lay dead - shot in the head
His eyes looking nowhere
A small-town-hero, at 18 a zero ...
No turnin' back
Never had the will to shoot to kill
Dead on the first attack
Open fire! - shoot to kill!
Rule 1: shoot first, then ask questions!
Rule 2: the winner hails!
Rule 3: remember, total destruction!
Rule 4: dead men tell no tales!
You man of war! well you live to see tomorrow!
Be wiser than your father was
Don't fall as a hero
Die! if you want to but man you can count me out
'cause i've been there before ...
It's a cold - bloody war
And i know what's it all about ...
Open fire! - shoot to kill!
- dead men tales no tales -
Shoot to kill ... - you're all gonna die!
