{verse} The sound of guns has given way to childrens cries The war has come home The black smoke and the hordes of flies Gold medallions for the citizens who stand and wait Battalions of strangers Battalions of strangers
{chorus} No one wants to lead the way...
{verse} The voice of calm from Moscow to the Pentagon Sound the alarm and try to back the better one Gold medallions for the men who must negotiate Battalions of strangers Battalions of strangers Battalions of strangers Battalions of strangers ... Out.
