[00:00.00]	作曲 : Chris Thompson
[00:04.84]	When they give you gun and tell you war has begun
[00:09.26]	And send you out to do some murder
[00:14.25]	Don't fight on their wars defy all their bourgeois laws
[00:18.48]	Class brothers must not shoot one another
[00:21.85]	In imperialist wars workers give their lives
[00:26.80]	The ruling class makes no sacrifice
[00:30.89]	We have no choice if we want to live in peace
[00:34.95]	Don't die for them but bring them to their knees
[00:49.42]	Before the first world war, labour leaders hotly swore
[00:54.00]	That by the working class they'd stand
[00:57.97]	But when the capitalist called, on their well-worn knees they crawled
[01:02.89]	To fight for their glorious homeland
[01:07.60]	When the spectre of world war comes knocking at the door
[01:11.92]	Class traitors start to howl but we don't have to fear
[01:18.70]	It means the time is getting near when the working class shall rule
[01:24.70]	In imperialist wars workers give their lives
[01:29.64]	The ruling class makes no sacrifice
[01:33.55]	We have no choice if we want to live in peace
[01:37.12]	Don't die for them but bring them to their knees
[01:50.90]	Some say the British empire has finally expired and its rulers lost all life
[01:59.60]	But if that's so we would like to know why in many lands across the globe
[02:04.27]	they still weld their butchers knife
[02:09.07]	In lands across the sea they're now fighting to be free
[02:12.97]	Their demand is to rule themselves
[02:17.95]	We've got a common cause we must support them in their wars
[02:22.44]	by fighting to free ourselves
[02:25.70]	In imperialist wars workers give their lives
[02:30.51]	The ruling class makes no sacrifice
[02:34.22]	We have no choice if we want to live in peace
[02:37.87]	Don't die for them but bring them to their knees
[02:47.53]
