The lamp that lights the way
Is a light from
yesterday.
The drum which leads the way
Is
a sound from yesterday.

The road is filled
with shadows
Of a million, living
leaves.
Darkness all around us
And not a
friend in sight.

We sang a song
together
To help us through the night.
The
song was sung with spirit
But soft, and like a
choir.

And as the others sang along,
Our
voices lifted higher.
We sang until we reached
the bridge
We crossed, then saw the
wire.

But by the time we stopped the
song,
The enemy had opened fire.

Now,
we ain't gonna sing that song no more
Ain't
gonna sing that song no more.
Just don't pay
to sing no more
Especially when you're in a
war.  A war.

Now, this time through,
We
want everybody to listen to the punchline
All
right.  All right.  All right!  All
right!

The song was sung with
spirit
But soft and like a choir.
But by
the time we stopped the song,
The enemy had
opened fire.

Now, we ain't gonna sing that
song no more.
Ain't gonna sing that song no
more.
Just don't pay to sing no
more.
Especially when you're in a war.
