Intro
Verse 1
The map has gone, It's burning in the afternoon
The smell's so strong, No chance to waft away
Gold medallions for the proud men in khaki
Those battalions of strangers those battalions of strangers
Chorus
No one wants to lead the way Be the first death of the day
Leave this family behind It must all be in the minds
Of battalions of strangers of battalions of strangers
Of battalions of strangers battalions of strangers
Verse 2
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
Those battalions of strangers those battalions of strangers
Chorus
No one wants to lead the way Be the first death of the day
Leave this family behind It must all be in the minds
Of battalions of strangers of battalions of strangers
Of battalions of strangers battalions of strangers
Verse 3
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
For those battalions of strangers [repeat and fade out]
