What Are Boys Are Fighting For - McCarthy

Today is the day that I die

For my motherland

In a faraway place

I know that the battle will be won

By the brave and the strong

By the brave and the strong

I'll lace up my boots

Put on my uniform

And we'll unfurl the flag

We'll fight and die under it's shade

We will fight them in the air

We'll fight them on the beaches

In the streets

We'll fight them anywhere

In the shade of the Union Jack

We'll go forward and we won't ever look back

Today is the day I die

For my motherland

In a faraway place

We traveled hundreds of miles

Come along away from home

For the battle today

I'll lace up my boots

Put on my uniform

And we'll unfurl the flag

We'll fight and die under its shade

We will fight them in the bars

We'll fight them on the picture

In the seats

We'll fight them anywhere

In the shade of the Union Jack

We'll go forward and we won't ever look back

Joe fell at the hands of the hung

Just about at halftime

In a terrible seat

The frogs dealt with Kevin it seems

While he was having a hit

But we'll have our revenge

Hip oligarchy

Insults the British flag

We'll lay into them

We'll teach them how the English fight

We're proud to be another British army

White like the other one

But not so well paid

In the shade of the Union Jack

We'll go forward and we won't ever

In the shade of the Union Jack

We'll go forward and we won't ever look back
