glorious! just glorious!
and doors are open
and light peeps through
and we're all in awe of
the legend of you
and happiness stays
where turmoil would flow
and life's great rewards
come to those in the know
glorious! just glorious!
and was the war worth it?
you may come to ask
to kill all those people
and drink from their flask?
glorious! just glorious!
but think to yourself
of such heroic deed
was the taste of sweet blood
the reward that you need?
glorious! just glorious!
and the pennies you count
amid the war's wake
were they really all worth it?
to fight, for God's sake!
you silenced the masses
and all is now well
but you can't stop the burning
in your sweet little hell
glorious! just glorious!
