the darkest hour

We will desert them on the beaches

when starving cold and ill

we will desert them on the killing ground

the shallows and the hill

we will always surrender

where there's no profit there's no will




in the annals of human conflict

in the unjust war

never has so few

screwed up like this before

the rapacious elected 

so many they ignore

a Churchillian finest hour?

what was it all for?
