Last night another soldier
Last night another child
No one seems to worry
No one sees his mother cry

Can you see that smart, clean soldier
Standing straight and oh so proud
He wants to fight for Queen and country
He wants to make his family proud

A job with the future
His way to get out of it
It's his sense of romance
It never ends that way

Last night another soldier
Last night another child
No one seems to worry
No one sees his mother cry

They're just facts and figures
On your TV screen
Another child and another soldier
Is peace just a dream

In the country strange and foreign
All the people resent him
He can't cope with the problems
Of all the fears and hatred

Now he wish he never went there
He wish he never started it
It's not the same as fighting armies
Looking for the terrorists

They're just facts and figures
On your T.V. screen
Another Child, another soldier
Is peace just a dream

Can you hear the mocking laughter
From the ones who gain by it
They're not in line for the bullets
They're the ones who started it

They're just facts and figures
On your T.V. screen
Another Child, another soldier
Is peace just a dream

Last night another soldier
Last night another child
Just a number in the papers
Another one of the innocent

They're just facts and figures
On your T.V. screen
Another Child, another soldier
Is peace just a dream

Last night another soldier
