In Your Face

Lions Led by Donkeys

We are George and Tony’s army posted far away,
We are fighting for their democratic way.

We are lions led by donkeys

Sent off to a country called Iraq,
Told by our leaders we would make our mark.

We are lions led by donkeys

Saddam was a man of great cruelty,
We were told he sought WMD.

We are lions led by donkeys

We went into battle brave and bold,
Never shirking or moaning, but doing as we were told.

We are lions led by donkeys

Planning was perfect, aside from a key element,
There was a fatal shortage of equipment.

We are lions led by donkeys

We have lost some friends and comrades,
As hope of finding those weapons of destruction fades.

We are lions led by donkeys

We are here to help the Iraqis, so they say,
If so, why do they shoot at us night and day?

We are lions led by donkeys

Post war planning, if any, has gone awry,
And day to day more are condemned to die.

We are lions led by donkeys

Now tell us Mr Bush and Mr Blair,
How long are we to be involved in this affair?

We are lions led by donkeys
