They Were Full Of Courage

They were full of courage, when they boarded their ship
On that cold sunny morning, they lined up to enlist
They were bold, they were brazen, and they stood tall in line
They were full of courage and their love for mankind

They were young men, they were old men
They were women, they were girls
They were sworn to defend us, and our place, in the world
But the bugs of Klandathu, they had other plans
And those brave men and women met their fate in the sands.

Won't you say a prayer for, for that brave infantry?
After all the ones they were there for, were you, and me.

When a soldier loses his brains, there is no one there to hear him cry
But his friends and his family, they can hold their heads up high.

(Spoken:)

When the arachnids destroyed the city of Buenos Aires, a gauntlet was thrown, and a red line was crossed.

There could be no civilians anymore.

Let us all do our part in this struggle, lest the enemy prevail, and wipe out humanity... forever.

(Sung:)

Won't you say a prayer for, for that brave infantry?
After all, the ones they were there for, were you, and me.

They were full of courage, when they boarded their ship
On that cold and sunny morning, they lined up to enlist.
