Us and them 
And after all we're only ordinary men 
Me and you 
God only knows it's not what we would choose to do
Forward he cried from the rear 
and the front rank died 
The General sat, and the lines on the map 
moved from side to side

Black and blue 
And who knows which is which and who is who 
Up and down 
And in the end it's only round and round 
And round
Haven't you heard it's a battle of words 
the poster bearer cried 
Listen son, said the man with the gun 
There's room for you inside

"I mean, they're not gunna kill ya, so if you give 'em a quickshort, sharp, shock, they won't do it again. Dig it? I mean he get off lightly, 'cos I would've given him a thrashing -
I only hit him once! It was only a difference of opinion, but really... I mean good manners don't cost nothing do they, eh?"

Down and out 
It can't be helped but there's a lot of it about 
With, without 
And who'll deny it's what the fighting's all about
Out of the way, it's a busy day 
I've got things on my mind 
For want of the price of tea and a slice 
The old man died
