Cohen Leonard - The Captain слова песни

Now the Captain called me to his bedHe fumbled for my hand"Take these silver bars," he said"I`m giving you command.""Command of what, there`s no one hereThere`s only you and me --All the rest are dead or in retreatOr with the enemy.""Complain, complain, that`s all you`ve doneEver since we lostIf it`s not the CrucifixionThen it`s the Holocaust.""May Christ have mercy on your soulFor making such a jokeAmid these hearts that burn like coalAnd the flesh that rose like smoke.""I know that you have suffered, lad,But suffer this awhile:Whatever makes a soldier sadWill make a killer smile.""I`m leaving, Captain, I must goThere`s blood upon your handBut tell me, Captain, if you knowOf a decent place to stand.""There is no decent place to standIn a massacre;But if a woman take your handGo and stand with her.""I left a wife in TennesseeAnd a baby in Saigon --I risked my life, but not to hearSome country-western song.""Ah but if you cannot raise your loveTo a very high degree,Then you`re just the man I`ve been thinking of --So come and stand with me.""Your standing days are done," I cried,"You`ll rally me no more.I don`t even know what sideWe fought on, or what for.""I`m on the side that`s always lostAgainst the side of HeavenI`m on the side of Snake-eyes tossedAgainst the side of Seven.And I`ve read the Bill of Human RightsAnd some of it was trueBut there wasn`t any burden leftSo I`m laying it on you."Now the Captain he was dyingBut the Captain wasn`t hurtThe silver bars were in my handI pinned them to my shirt.
