Paroles de Cannon song (aka army song)
Stan Ridgway
(kurt weill/bertolt brecht/marc blitzstein)
Performed by stan ridgway and the fowler brothers
John was all present and jim was all there
And georgie was up for promotion
Not that the army gave a bugger who they were
When confronting some heathen commotion
Chorus
The troops live under the cannon's thunder
Fromsind to cooch behar
Moving from place to place
When they come face to face
With a different breed of fellow
Whose skin is black or yellow
They quick as winking chop them into beefsteak tartar
Johnny found his whiskey too warm
And jimmy found the weather too balmy
But georgie took them both by the arm and said,
"don't ever disappoint the army!"
Chorus
John is a write-off and jimmy is dead
And georgie was shot for looting
And young men's blood goes on being red
While the army just goes on ahead recruiting
Chorus
