This Means War

Alright

You keep your head down, yeah

[Verse 1]

I

I want you

I want you to

I want you to march

Eyes go right, shoulder arms

Left wheel turn, show your charms

Change your clothes, cut your hair

Ain't no joke, ain't no place for kids

[Pre-Chorus]

When the flags are high, hear the battle cry

Treaty gone, see the bandit fly

Dig that trench, watch that blast

Shell-shock come, comin' fast

Name and rank, on parade

We might get laid by a hand grenade

Do you know what it means?

Do you know what it means?

This

Means

War

[Chorus]

This means war

This means war

I said, this means war

This means war

This means war

The bullet got your number on it

[Bridge]

Run for cover

Hit the dirt

Call for your mother, yeah

Ohh yeah

[Verse 2]

I

I need you

I need you to

I need you to fire

Cock your gun, wet your sights

Get the bull, dead to rights

Volunteer, one pace back

On the beach

Ain't no place for kids

Mmm

[Pre-Chorus]

Well, the flak is high on the bomber run

You don't talk back to an ack-ack gun

Fire rage, and you're in the blitz

Keep your head, or you're blown to bits

Name and rank on parade

Might get laid by a hand grenade

You know what it means?

Do you know what it means?

This

Means

War

[Guitar Solo]

Yeah-yeah-yeah

Oooh yeah-yeah

[Verse 3]

Who go there, is it friend or foe? (This means war)

Propaganda time on the radio (This means war)

Top brass shout as they clown around (This means war)

And peace talks die in Geneva town (This means war)

Do you know what it means? (This means war)

Do you know what it means? (This means war)

Do you know what it means? (This means war)

Do you know what it means? (This means…)

[Chorus]

This means war, yeah

This means war

I said, this means war

I said, this means war

This means war

Where's the Seventh Cavalry?

Ohh

[Chorus]

Woww, this means war

I told you before

I said, this means war

You know the score

I said, this means war

This means war

This

Means

War

You're all dead
