Awakening from the dampness that covers the land
Moist to the brink of madness, intolerable heat
The young commander rises from his bed
And stumbles to his faltering, stinking feet
Stirring up the dust of the dried out road
Soldiers on the verge of collapsing, lungs on fire
Order must be immediately restored
For the queen, the king and the empire
Disorder
We cannot have disorder
There mustn't be disorder
We'll teach them that disorder
Shall be destroyed
Bayonets on - Shoot to kill - Ready - Aim - FIRE!
Faces ripped apart in a carnage, so vast
A vile reel of molested human remains
The Chinese, poisoned by opium, creating
A slaughterhouse of human build that explains...
