Now the Captain called me to his bed
He fumbled for my hand "Take these silver bars," he said "I`m giving you command." "Command of what, there`s no one here There`s only you and me -- All the rest are dead or in retreat Or with the enemy." "Complain, complain, that`s all you`ve done Ever since we lost If it`s not the Crucifixion Then it`s the Holocaust." "May Christ have mercy on your soul For making such a joke Amid these hearts that burn like coal And the flesh that rose like smoke." "I know that you have suffered, lad, But suffer this awhile: Whatever makes a soldier sad Will make a killer smile." "I`m leaving, Captain, I must go There`s blood upon your hand But tell me, Captain, if you know Of a decent place to stand." "There is no decent place to stand In a massacre; But if a woman take your hand Go and stand with her." "I left a wife in Tennessee And a baby in Saigon -- I risked my life, but not to hear Some country-western song." "Ah but if you cannot raise your love To 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 side We fought on, or what for." "I`m on the side that`s always lost Against the side of Heaven I`m on the side of Snake-eyes tossed Against the side of Seven. And I`ve read the Bill of Human Rights And some of it was true But there wasn`t any burden left So I`m laying it on you." Now the Captain he was dying But the Captain wasn`t hurt The silver bars were in my hand I pinned them to my shirt.
