In a restaurant Drinkin' beaujoulais wine You're with your favourite girl And you're passin' the time Well, you look through the paper Holocaust in the roxy Five bottles later You're lovin' your lady I can see Burning bones of war I can see Ashes on the floor There stands a soldier In a barbed-wire land The fear of death in his eyes And a bottle in his hand But, now the wine he's drinking It's got the taste of blood No more plastic war movies To show him what it's like I can see Burning bones of war I can see Ashes on the floor (Guitar solo) I can see Burning bones of war I can see Ashes on the floor
