Lyrics
Universal Soldier
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
He's 5 foot 2 and he's 6 feet 4
And he fights with missiles and with spears
He's all of 31 and he's only 17.
And he's been a soldier for a thousand years
He's a catholic, a Hindu, an atheist, a Jane
A boarders, a Baptist and Jew.
And he knows he shouldn't 've killed
And he knows he always will kill
You'll for me my freidn and me for you
He's fighting for Canada.
He's fighting for France.
He's fighting for the USA.
And he's fighting for the Russians.
And he's fighting for Japan
And he thinks we'll brought an end to war this way.
He's fighting for democracy,
he's fighting for the reds
He says it's for the peace of all.
He's the one, who must decide,
who's to live and who's to die.
And he never sees the writing on the walls.
But without him,
how would Hitler have condemned him at Dachau?
Without him Caesar would have stood alone
He's the one who gives is body
as a weapon to the war.
And without him all this killing can't go on
He's the universal soldier
And he really is the blame
But his orders comes from
far away no more.
They come from him.
And you and me.
Oh, brothers can't you see.
This is not the way we put an end to war
