He's a hero of the war

All the neighborhood is talkin' 'bout your son

Mrs Reiley get his medals

Hand them 'round to everyone

Show his gun to all the children in the street

It's too bad he can't shake hands or move his feet

He's a hero of the war

You can see his picture in the local news

Mrs Reiley seems the girl next door is nowhere to be found

Once you couldn't keep that boy from hangin' 'round

Never mind dear you're with your mum once more

He's a hero of the war

Like his dad he gave his life the war before

It was tragic how you almost died of pain when he was born

With no husband there beside you through it all

Ring the bell if you get hungry or you fall

You're a hero of the war

Why those teardrops on your cheek it's so absurd

Feelin' empty it's the emptiness of heroes like your son

And what made him leave his mother for a gun

Driven forward driven back and nothing more

He's a hero of the war
