[00:10.32] He's five foot two and he's six feet four
[00:15.21] He fights with missiles and with spears
[00:20.41] He's all of thirty-one and he's only seventeen
[00:25.27] He's been a soldier through a thousand years
[00:30.10] He's a Catholic, a Hindu, an Atheist, a Jain
[00:35.37] A Buddhist, a Baptist and a Jew
[00:39.75] And he knows he shouldn't kill, and he knows he always will
[00:44.80] Kill you for me my friend, and me for you
[00:49.57] And he's fighting for Canada, he's fighting for France
[00:54.28] He's fighting for the U.S.A. and he's fighting for the Russians
[01:01.16] And he's fighting for Japan
[01:03.73] And he thinks we'll put an end to war this way
[01:08.38] And he's fighting for democracy, he's fighting for the Reds
[01:13.35] He says it's for the peace of all, he's the one who must decide
[01:20.35] Who's to live and who's to die
[01:23.05] And he never sees the writing on the wall
[01:27.34] But without him, how would Hitler have condemned him at Dachau
[01:32.23] Without him, Caesar would have stood alone
[01:36.75] He's the one who gives his body as a weapon of the war
[01:41.50] And without him all this killing can't go on
[01:46.16] He's the universal soldier and he really is to blame
[01:51.01] His orders come from far away, no more
[01:55.02] They come from here and there and you and me
[01:59.07] And brothers, can't you see
[02:02.43] This is not the way we put the end to war?
