"En självklar estradör i både mellansnack och visleveranser"

Guess you wonder what I'm doing here upon dry land
Dm C E E7
On my way to Berlin with a rifle in my hand
Am E F C /b
Yes, I am a sailor but I'm walking side by side
Dm C E E7
With boys from the western front where millions have died
Am E F C /b
Do you see the ribbons 'round our arms all coloured red?
Dm7 C E E7
War for us is over, we'll have class struggle instead
F C G Am G
The men in power point their fingers now and ever more
F C E E7
And say that our cowardness did sabotage the war
F C G Am G
But we will straighten our backs and say that madness ceased
F C E Am
In 1918, when we won our peace
Graves are dug on all sides now across this continent
All because of leaders who were all called heavensent
They who got so used to that we'd follow and abide
That they tried to send the fleet for one last mass suicide
But we raised red flags and turned our gunship battery
To threaten the few ships that had not joined our mutiny
The men in power...
Now they call us traitors and that just might be fair
But traitors to a government that stands with asses bare
Their only naked motive is constant greed for more
And if you let them they will sure find ways to start new wars
After 4 years in the trenches and a 1000 on our knees
We rose up and like in Russia our emperor must flee
The men in power...
We turned on our masters, lost the war and won our peace
