Like a raging wind We scorched the earth With a fist of steel We swept armies aside With hammers of fire Set the world ablaze In mighty bursts of flame Bombs fell from the sky By the Declaration of war We answered the call to arms For the glory of the Empire A dream that one day will be real The city streets in jubilee Parading for victory Hysteria the people cheer A deafening roar is all you hear Trumpet and fife Marching band lead the way with pipe Marching to the beat of the drum Chin up, eyes straight, with shouldered gun Fathers take their sons by the hand Marching off together into foreign lands Follow the beat of the drum There's a job to be done Embrace the call To hell with the cowards They run and hide Remembered are those who've fought and died Honoured ones who gave their lives Their names shall be written in stone Preserved for eternity The price of victory pays a heavy toll Freedom doesn't come cheap
