Quite A Common Brag

You boast of your Country and the color of your National flag
But among your kind this is quite a common brag
The heroes of your praises are not with us today
For their place in glory with their lives they did pay
Patriots and Nationalists are to be found everywhere
There are billions like you are in the big World out there
People are dying in war zones every day Worldwide
For National borders and culture and religion and patriotic pride
Your kind sad to say for war always have sowed the seed
There are plenty who think like you of any more we are not in need
Out of peaceful people heroes are never made
And they are never remembered and celebrated in a street parade
You boast of your Country and the color of your National flag
But among your kind this is quite a common brag.
