Us and Them

Us (Us, us, us, us, us) and them (Them, them, them, them, them)
And after all we're only ordinary man
Me (Me, me, me, me, me) and you (You, you, you, you, you)
God only knows it's not what we would choose to do

"Forward!" he cried from the rear
And the four hundred died
General sat and the lines on the map
Moved from the side to side

Black (Black, black, black, black, black)
And blue (Blue, blue, blue, blue, blue)
And who knows which is which and who is who?
Up (Up, up, up, up, up) and down (Down, down, down, down, down)
And in the end it's only round and round and round

"Haven't you heard it's a battle of words?"
The poster bearer cried
"Listen son," said the man with the gun
"There's room for you inside"

Down (Down, down, down, down, down) and out (Out, out, out, out, out)
It can't be helped but there's a lot of it about
With (With, with, with, with, with)
Without (Without, without, without, without)
And who'll deny it's what the fighting's all about?

"Out of the way, it's a busy day
I've got things on my mind
For want of the price of tea and a slice
The old man died"
