Burn Down The Bridges lyrics

June - `41, World-war 2nd.
At the Russian-frontiers
the Germans are marchin` on.
Ready to kill without mercy.
Orders from Kreml;
We`ll burn down the bridges behind.
Burn down the bridges

Back in Berlin they are now
more convinced than ever.
The whole world must kneel to the `Swastika`
`Sieg-heil,` the `Eagle` has landed.
`The third Reich` will rise again.
Yell Sieg-heil!
But weeks turned to months, and the battles
raged-on. The `peasants`
were fighting back-still.
Little by little the Germans would learn
that Russian-winter kills.
Trapped in the snow - it was freezing below
in the `waste-land`, the truth was all too real.
Taken by storm, attacked from behind
by the Cossacks, the mighty `Troops of steel`;
turned to their heels

Just like Napoleon before
Hitler was chased-back to his own `front-door`.
His army was wasted and worn
his `dream` all shattered and torn.
In order to save his Berlin,
he now gave the order to...
burn down the bridges.
Yes, it must be done
We`re gonna burn`em down
We`ll burn all the bridges behind.

The winds of war would soon be stilled,
but how lawn will it be...
`till the missiles light up the sky
to start `World-War III`.
