XTC — Generals And Majors lyrics

Lyrics

Generals and Majors ah ah they’re never too far
from battlefields so glorious
out in a world of their own
They’ll never come down
till once again victorious
Generals and Majors always
seem so unhappy 'less they got a war
Generals and Majors ah ah like never before are tired of being actionless.
Calling Generals and Majors
Generals and Majors everywhere
Calling Generals and Majors
your World War III is drawing near
Generals and Majors ah ah They’re never too far
away from men who made the grade
out in a world of their own
They’ll never come down
until the battle’s lost or made
Generals and Majors ah ah like never before, are tired of being in the shade.
