about

Beautiful cover version of an old folk song against war. Only voice, Jew's harp and bassnote.

lyrics

They told all the fine young men, that when the war is over
There will be peace, and the peace will last forever
In Flanders Fields, at Lone Pine and Beersheba,
For king and country, for honor and duty,
Those young men fought and cursed and wept and died

They told all the fine young men, that when the war is over,
In your country's grateful heart, we will cherish you forever
At Tobruk and Alamein, at Bhuna and Kokoda,
Like their fathers before, In a world mad with war
Those young men fought and cursed and wept and died

For many of those fine young men, all the wars are over,
They have found peace, it's the peace that lasts forever
When the call comes again, they will not answer,
They are just forgotten bones, lying far from their homes,
As forgotten as the cause for which they died.

Oh, young men, can’t you see now how they lied?
