The Anzacs Lyrics by Battlegrave

To Hell With War

2017

When Britain declares war on them
We respond
As do we
To defend the old country
To the Motherland we will pledge
Our last man
Our everything
Down to our final schilling
Adventure appeals to them
So they sign
The dotted line
Blind to the horror that awaits
With NZ boys they’re on to ships
And sail to
The Pyramids
They’re anointed The Anzacs
First
Assignment
Was
To Tackle
The Turks in Gallipoli
Land
In a cove
In April
1915
With no idea of
The immediate
Danger that they’re in
Through thorny scrub
Up rocky heights
Ambush begins
Over
The coming days
Kilometres
Of trenches made
Sniper Fire
And shelling
Denying them
From advancing
Bullets whistle past their ears now
Withdraw our troops
From the fields
Exit from Gallipoli
Many men not coming home
Even more now lay in beds
Wounded, Shattered
Broken men
The fit move on to fight once more
In Palestine, deployed again
The western front
As well in France
To defeat the German force
During day and night they fought
To preserve
Our way of Life
To these brave men we owe it all
Invoke their spirit
They went to war – To defend us
They went to war – For our freedom
They went to war – And gave their own lives
They went to war – We will remember them
First
Assignment
Was
To Tackle
Turks in Gallipoli
Land
In a cove
In April
1915
No idea of
The immediate
Danger they’re in
Through thorny scrub
Up rocky heights
Ambush begins
The Anzac spirit lives on in us
