The Anti War Man

The flag of his Country he never did wave
And the last post will never be played at his grave
He was not the type of which heroes are made
The man who walked in many an anti war parade

One who did not have children or did not have a wife
Though he had a few intimate female friends in his life
A likeable fellow in him so much good
And if he could help you he most certainly would

He died of a heart attack at fifty one
His deceased mum and dad in him raised a good son
Amongst anti war people he was widely known
They did look upon him as one of their own

An army bugler at the grave side The Last Post will never play
Of the anti war man who was buried today
At the next anti war parade he will not walk up and down
With the peace loving locals on the streets of the town.
