There was a decorated general with a heart of gold That likened him to all the stories he told Of past battles, won and lost and legends of old A seasoned veteran in his own timeOn the battlefield, he gained respectable fame With many medals of bravery and stripes to his name He grew a beard as soon as he could To cover the scars on his face and always urged his men onBut on the eve of a great battle with the infantry in dream The old general tossed in his sleep and wrestled with its meaning He awoke from the night to tell what he had seen And walked slowly out of his tentAll the men held tall with their chests in the air With courage in their blood and a fire in their stare It was a gray morning and they all wondered how they would fare Till the old general told them to go homeHe said, "I have seen the others and I have discovered That this fight is not worth fighting and I've seen their mothers And I will no other to follow me where I'm going"So take a shower and shine your shoes you got no time to lose You are young men you must be living, yeah Take a shower and shine your shoes you got no time to lose You are young men you must be living, go now you are forgivenBut the men stood fast with their guns on their shoulders Not knowing what to do with the contradicting orders The general said, he would do his own duty but he would Extend it no further the men could go as they pleasedBut not a man moved, their eyes gazed straight ahead Till one by one they stepped back and not a word was said And the old general was left with his Own words echoing in his head, he then prepared to fightHe said, "I have seen the others and I have discovered That this fight is not worth fighting Oh and I've seen their mothers And I'll will no other to follow me where I'm going"So take a shower and shine your shoes you got no time to lose You are young men you must be living, yeah Take a shower and shine your shoes you got no time to lose You are young men you must be living, go now you are forgivenGo now you are forgiven Go now you are forgiven Go now you are forgiven GoGo now you are forgiven Go now you are forgiven Go now you are forgiven GoGo now you are forgiven Go now you are forgiven Go now you are forgiven Go ...
