bagatelle - old soldiers lyrics
[verse 1]
well the old men played cards in the sun by the swimming pool
in a country where the money got three hundred for one
and they left out the world
they left us behind
a world they left halfway undone
[verse 2]
and the sun on their bodies
hid the scars on their souls
and the beat was the same
as it was long ago
and a shiny new car
that is built by the sun
except for the prices
the same as the one
in which the battles
were fought long ago
[verse 3]
and a time magazine
is as much as they need
to see how the world gets along
and it doesn’t cost much
to keep the locals at bay
just hike up the prices
and bid them good day
[verse 4]
and the liquor costs nothing
and it makes them forget
the newspapers say
that haven’t got them all yet
but who gives a d-mn?
because memories are short
who cares who was k!lled
who cares who was hurt?
in an ancient young war
in which they had a part
[chorus]
and the memories are fading away
and the game is as long as they wanna play
and it seems like it was only yesterday…
[instrumental]
[chorus]
and the memories are fading away
and the game is as long as they wanna play
and it seems like it was only yesterday…
