"The Future of Warfare"
The Repetitive Lyrics:
Standing in the line of fire,
32 will lead the way.

Going through the endless grey.
Standing in the line of fire,
Moving on through the fray,
Coming over trench and wire,
Live to fight another day.
Why They're Repetitive:
The chorus is repetitive and repeats 3 times.

Insincere Song Lyrics:

"The First Soldier"
The Insincere Lyrics:
From the south to the front into No-Man's Land,
From a farm to the end of the road.
Son of France, he's the first on the frontline
Coming home,
Coming home,
Let his story be known.
Why They're Insincere:
This is a song about a distinguished French soldier, known for his numerous successful missions and capture of enemy soldiers throughout the First World War. However, the line about "the end of the road" is probably referring to when he was struck down and killed by a bus, yet the song is very triumphant-sounding.

"Fields of Verdun"
The Insincere Lyrics:
As the drum roll started on that day,
Heard a hundred miles away,
A million shells were fired,
And the green fields turned to grey.
The bombardment lasted all day long,
Yet the forts were standing strong.
Heavily defended,
Now the trap's been sprung and the battle's begun.
Descend into darkness,
303 days below the sun.
Fields of Verdun,
And the battle has begun.
Nowhere to run,
Father and son
Fall one by one
Under the gun.
Thy will be done,
And the judgement has begun.
Nowhere to run,
Father and son
Fall one by one,
Fields of Verdun.
Though a million shells have scarred the land,
No-one has the upper hand.
From the ground above to trenches,
Where the soldiers make their stand.
As the trenches slowly turn to mud
And then quickly start to flood,
Death awaits in every corner,
As they die in the mud, fill the trenches with blood...
(later) Fields of execution
Turned to wasteland from the grass.
Thou shalt go no further,
It was said, "They shall not pass!"
The spirit of resistance
And the madness of the war,
So go ahead,
Face the lead,
Join the dead.
Though you die
Where you lie,
Never asking why...
Why They're Insincere:
The Battle of Verdun was the longest single battle of the First World War, lasting for more than 300 days. Yet this song is very upbeat and catchy.

Misrhymed Song Lyrics:

"Soldier of 3 Armies"
The Misrhymed Lyrics:
Shout Lauri Törni’s name,
A soldier of 3 armies knows the game,
Deeds that echo from the past.
Rise from beyond your grave,
Son of Finland and a green beret.
May you rest in peace at last,
Lauri Allan Törni.
Why They're Misrhymed:
Everything rhymes, until they say his name again.

"Night Witches"
The Misrhymed Lyrics:
Beneath the starlight of the heavens,
Unlikely heroes in the skies.
(Witches to attack, witches coming back)
As they appear on the horizon,
The wind will whisper when the Night Witches come.
Why They're Misrhymed:
The bridge has only one rhyming line in it.

Boasting in Song Lyrics:

"Carolus Rex [Swedish]"
The Boasting Lyrics:
[Rough translation] A new time is approaching, this time is coming to an end.
All of Stockholm see me crowned,
Cannons fire salute.
No oath taken, no oath I swear.
The crown does not come from the church,
It came directly from God.
Over the Nordics I rule
With the inheritance that I was given...
The art of war I master,
Let my name spread terror...
Everything I see, want more, who could stop me?
The whole of Europe shall bow for my army
What is yours shall be mine when I slay you
My will be done!
Comments:
Both versions have the king saying you can't question him because he was chosen by the Lord. The Swedish version is similar to the English, but this one has the king boasting about his coronation and how Europe will fear him. He is also experienced in war.

"We Burn"
The Boasting Lyrics:
Genocide?
Who will drag me to court?
There's no crime if you do not get caught
I am the law
Comments:
The officers are boasting how they won't get caught killing people in the genocide in Bosnia.

Scary Song Lyrics:

"Ghost Division"
The Lyrics:
Fast as the wind the invasion has begun,
Shaking the ground with the force of (a) thousand guns.
First in the line of fire, first into hostile land,
Tanks leading the way, leading the way.
Charging the lines with the force of a furious storm,
Fast as the lightning, phantoms swarm.
Two-hundred miles at nightfall, taken within a day,
Thus earning the name, earning the fame.
They are the Panzer Elite.
Born to compete, never retreat,
(Ghost Division).
Living or dead, always ahead,
Fed by your dread.
Always ahead as the blitzkrieg rages on,
Breaking morale with the sound of blazing guns...
Leaving a trail of destruction through a foreign land (Waging war with conviction)
Massive assault live to serve the nazi plan (Wehrmachts' pride, ghost division).
Communications broken, Phantoms too far away,
Thus earning the name, earning the fame...
Pushing the frontline forth with a tremendous force (Far ahead, breaks resistance),
Breaching the way for panzer corps (Show no fear, self-subsistent)...
Why:
This song is about the 7th Panzer Division, commanded by Erwin Rommel, that participated in the invasion of Belgium and France in 1940. By the third day of the invasion, the 7th along with three divisions commanded by General Heinz Guderian reached the river Meuse. By the 16th of May, the 7th had reached its assigned objective at Avesnes where it was supposed to stop and await further orders, but Rommel decided to press on. On the 20th of May, the division reached Arras where they encountered heavy resistance from the British forces. They reached Lille on the 27th of May which they sieged until the 31st. On the 17th of June 1940, the division was ordered to advance on Cherbourg. The division advanced 240 kilometers in 24 hours, and after two days of battle, won against the French garrison. The speed and surprise they were able to achieve was considerable, to the point that the German high command lost track of the division and thus they earned the nickname “Ghost Division." Singing about how powerful these tanks were is very scary. They could break through land so easily.

"Nuclear Attack"
The Lyrics:
Dropped from Enola, a city erased, threat of the future displayed
A power unheard of a power unseen
Flash out of nowhere, the sky is burning
At 8:16 AM, Tokyo control realized something was wrong
Reports of explosions, destruction and pain
Air raid from hell, city gone in a blaze.
August in black, B-29's coming back.
Prepare for nuclear attack
Warned but did not heed
Prepare for nuclear attack
Extermination
Strike back
Chose not to believe
Another nuclear attack.
From the southeast came the second attack, threat of tomorrow unveiled
11:02 on the 9th of August
Over the valley, like ball lightning
The bomb detonates and the land turns to waste, barren for decades to come The factories burning, the steelworks destroyed
Surrender your war, else you’ll perish in flames.
Second attack, B-29's turning back.
Why:
This song is about the two atomic bombs dropped on the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. It describes the destruction of the cities in quite scary detail.

Bad Grammar in Song Lyrics:

"Father"
The Lyrics:
And on the battlefield they're dying,
And on the fields, the crops are grown.
Why:
I think only the second sentence should've started with "and".

"Inmate 4859"
The Lyrics:
Join the uprising, fight on the streets while hiding his rank.
Why:
It says, "join" instead of "joins" and "fight" instead of "fights", but strangely the next line correctly says "takes".

Lyrics Pronunciation:

"Fields of Verdun"
The Lyrics:
The spirit of resistance and the madness of the war.
So go ahead, face the lead, join the dead,
Though you die, where you lie, never asking why.
Why:
The singer says "lead" like "led". This is also done in their songs "Attack of the Dead Men", "Great War", and "The Carolean's Prayer", among others.

"The Red Baron"
The Lyrics:
Call out his name, Rote Kampfflieger.
Why:
“Roter Kampfflieger” in German means Red Fighter Pilot, which was the color of the plane the Red Baron flew and instilled fear into every allied fighter pilot that saw him. It's also a reference to Manfred von Richthofen’s book, “Der Rote Kampfflieger”.

As the drum roll started on that day,
Heard a hundred miles away,
A million shells were fired,
And the green fields turned to grey.
The bombardment lasted all day long,
Yet the forts were standing strong.
Heavily defended,
Now the trap's been sprung and the battle's begun.
Descend into darkness,
303 days below the sun.
Fields of Verdun,
And the battle has begun.
Nowhere to run,
Father and son
Fall one by one
Under the gun.
Thy will be done,
And the judgement has begun.
Nowhere to run,
Father and son
Fall one by one,
Fields of Verdun.
Though a million shells have scarred the land,
No-one has the upper hand.
From the ground above to trenches,
Where the soldiers make their stand.

The spirit of resistance
And the madness of the war,
So go ahead,
Face the lead,
Join the dead.
Though you die
Where you lie,
Never asking why...
Why:
Another song not to play at a war memorial or service. A very upbeat song about the Battle of Verdun, the longest single battle of the First World War, lasting for more than 300 days, with over 700,000 combined casualties.
