《Children’s Crusade》歌词

[00:00:00] Children’s Crusade - Sting (史汀)

[00:00:01] Written by：Gordon Sumner

[00:00:18] Young men soldiers nineteen fourteen

[00:00:25] Marching through countries they'd never seen

[00:00:31] Virgins with rifles a game of charades

[00:00:37] All for a Children's Crusade

[00:00:46] Pawns in the game are not victims of chance

[00:00:52] Strewn on the fields of Belgium and France

[00:00:59] Poppies for young men death's bitter trade

[00:01:05] All of those young lives betrayed

[00:01:14] The children of England would never be slaves

[00:01:20] They're trapped on the wire and dying in waves

[00:01:26] The flower of England face down in the mud

[00:01:32] And stained in the blood of a whole generation

[00:01:41] Corpulent generals safe behind lines

[00:01:47] History's lessons drowned in red wine

[00:01:53] Poppies for young men death's bitter trade

[00:01:59] All of those young lives betrayed

[00:02:05] All for a Children's Crusade

[00:03:47] The children of England would never be slaves

[00:03:52] They're trapped on the wire and dying in waves

[00:03:59] The flower of England face down in the mud

[00:04:05] And stained in the blood of a whole generation

[00:04:13] Midnight in Soho nineteen eighty four

[00:04:19] Fixing in doorways o***m slaves

[00:04:25] Poppies for young men such bitter trade

[00:04:32] All of those young lives betrayed

[00:04:41] All for a Children's Crusade
