Stand close to me, my little friend It's so hard to see, let's not pretend There's danger in the night For you and me There's men with armalite Who kill for free
Sirens wailing and I am waiting For my exploding bullets
Speak so softly now if you speak at all I think I'm ready now I hear a call
Sirens wailing and I am waiting For my exploding bullets
But wait a minute With a fluttering heart I wait for the men with minds Like steel traps Softly singing in time We've got to get out of here But listen to the sirens They haven't been used since the war But this is the war
