Under The Gun
Perfect Strangers - 1984

 
(Blackmore/Glover/Gillan)

 Infidel can you hear
  Would be strange delight
  I need you to give your sympathy tonight
  When you hear what I say
  Deeds I've done
  Realise I've never lost and never won

  I've got a feeling that it's never right
  There was a reason but it's out of sight
  It's going down somewhere tonight
  Under the gun

  Put death in my hand
  Learn to fight
  Who could care if it's wrong or if it's right
  We got no choice
  Under command
  We're ordered to die or take this land

  Stupid bastards and religious freaks
  So safe in their castle keeps
  They turn away as a mother weeps
  Under the gun

  When brave men fall
  Under crimson skies
  There's a sadness reflected in a soldier's
    eyes
  Tears will dry
  For those I kill
  Remember no more their names but
    someone will

  The only way to be victorious
  Screw the fools who think it's glorious
  Who gives a toss about the likes of us
  Under the gun
