Been eight decades since the Great War Never thought we'd see this no more The bullets flew, the madness spread And turned the black earth red What turned the black earth red? Don't forget what lies ahead The mines, the bombs, the tears we shed When you turn the black earth red We built city walls and dirt floor shacks Didn't think we'd ever go back The pavement marked by the treads When you turn the black earth red What turned the black earth red? Don't forget the words we said The mines, the bombs, the tears we shed When you turn the black earth red The madmen came from the west Stole what they could, burned the rest Left us hangin' by a thread We plowed the fields, shared our bed Sowed the grain, baked the bread How dare you turn this black earth red? What turned the black earth red? Do you remember how we fled The lives, the loss, the tears we shed? When you turn the black earth red Can't we try something else instead? Have you forgotten how you bled The barren land, 10 million dead? When you turn the black earth red You turn the black earth red You turn the black earth red You turn the black earth red
