Gallipoli - Dungeon

So southern sons

Swallow propaganda

And set sail to leave our shores

So far away, a distant war

No voice to say

No word opposed

The orders handed down from feckless hands

All condemned to die in foreign lands

Eight thousand men to lose their lives

Honour till death, the ANZAC pride

Orders taught, we storm the Dardanelles

A futile task, all men condemned to hell

A legend born there as our children fell

ANZACS stand taller than all

Nowhere to hide

The raining fire of guns

Now turn the sapphire waters red

Survivors few and far between the dead

So the time has come

To scale the walls

And run the deadly gauntlet — No Man’s Land

The time to stand or fall is now at hand

Eight thousand men to lose their lives

Honour till death, the ANZAC pride

Orders taught, we storm the Dardanelles

A futile task, all men condemned to hell

A legend born there as our children fell

ANZACS stand taller than all
