Boots lyrics by Young Fathers

Verse 1
Seven–six–eleven–five–nine-an’-tw enty mile to-day –
Four–eleven–seventeen–thirty-two the day before –
(Boots–boots–boots–boots–moving up an’ down again!)
There’s no discharge in the war!

Verse 2
Don’t–don’t–don’t–don’t–look at what’s in front of you
(Boots–boots–boots–boots–movin’ up an’ down again);
Men–men–men–men–men go mad with watchin’ em

Verse 3
Count–count–count–count–the bullets in the bandoliers
If–your–eyes–drop–they will get atop of you!
(Boots–boots–boots–boots–moving up an’ down again) –
There’s no discharge in the war!

Verse 4
‘Taint–so–bad–by–day because o’ company
But night–brings–long–strings–o’ forty thousand million
Boots–boots–boots–boots–moving up an’ down again

Verse 5
I–‘ave–marched–six–weeks in Hell and certify
It–is–not–fire–devils, dark, or anything
But boots–boots–boots–boots–movin’ up an’ down again

Verse 6
Try–try–try–try–to think o’ something different –
Oh–my–God–keep–me from going lunatic!
(Boots–boots–boots–boots–moving up an’ down again!)
There’s no discharge in the war!
