"We meet 'neath the sounding rafters,
The walls around us are bare;
They echo the peals of laughter;
It seems the dead are there.
So stand by your glasses steady,
This world is a world of lies.
Here's a toast for the dead already;
Hurrah for the next one who dies."
"Cut off from the land that bore us,
Betrayed by the land we find.
The good men have gone before us,
And only the dull left behind.
So stand by your glasses steady,
This world is a web of lies.
Here's a toast to the dead already;
AND HURRAH FOR THE NEXT ONE WHO DIES!"
My brothers in arms, rest in peace for you've earned it- those remaining salute you, thank you for buying us time, and stand ready on the home-front. God Bless.
