Xtract - War Heroes lyrics

rate me

They' re at the top whew they've been all their lives

Parliament heroes and government spies

with a model landscape and toy soldiers

Hatch the plot and g we their orders

With people's lives they scheme and plot

War manoeuvres on s table top

With a grid reference and a grid square

To pinpoint the enemy exactly there

Churchill, Mountbatten, Montgomery too

All the heroes from World War Two

While the troops were out there

Countin' their days

It was these men who were taking the praise

Pushing plastic aircraft on a big map

smoking cigars and talking crap

Churchill, Mountbatten, Montgomery too

All the heroes from World War Two
