Last Night Another Soldier Lyrics - Singles - Angelic Upstarts

Last night another soldier, last night another child 

No one seems to worry, no one sees his mother cry 

Can you see that smart, clean soldier, 

Standing straight and oh so proud 

He wants to fight for Queen and country 

He wants to make his family proud 

A job with the future, his way to get out of it 

It's his sense of romance, it never ends that way 

Last night another soldier, last night another child 

No one seems to worry, no one sees his mother cry

They're just facts and figures on your TV screen 

Another child and another soldier, is peace just a dream 

In the country strange and foreign all the people resent him 

He can't cope with his problems, all the fears and hatred 

Now he wish he never went he wish he never thought of it 

It's not the same as fighting armies looking for the terrorists 

They're just facts and figures... 

Can you hear the mocking laughter from the ones that gain by it 

They're not in line for the bullets, they're the ones who started it 

Photos 

They're just facts and figures... 

Last night another soldier, last night another child 

Just a number in the papers, another one of the innocent 

They're just facts and figures.
