'E thinks 'e's right (of course 'e ain't) but this we both agree. If them as made it 'ad to fight, there wouldn't be no war. If them as lies in feather beds while we kips in the mud; If them as makes their fortoons while we fights for 'em like 'ell; If them as slings their pot of ink just 'ad to sling their blood : By Crust! I'm thinkin' there 'ud be another tale to tell. Shiverin' up to the sandbags. With a hicicle 'stead of a spine, 71 A SONG OF THE SANDBAGS Don't it seem funny the things you... think 'Ere in the firin' line : {Whee! Whut! Ziz! Zut! Lord! 'Ow the bullets whine!) Hunkerin' down when a star-shell Cracks in a sputter of light, You can jaw to yer soul by the sandbags Most any old time o' night. They talks o' England's glory and a-'oldin' of our trade, Of Empire and 'igh destiny until we're fair flim- flammed; But If it's for the likes o' that that bloody war is made, Then wot I say is: Empire and 'igh destiny be damned ! There's only one good cause. Bill, for poor blokes like us to fight : That's self-defence, for 'earth and 'ome, and them that bears our name ; And that's wot I'm a-doin' by the sandbags 'ere to-night.
