Description
Доброго дня, цього разу зробив пісеньку про Першу світову.. Пісню я зробив ще давненько, але мотивації на відео не було, лише зараз я все таки її викладаю.
Пісня була написано мною з допомогою ChatGPT та виконано за допомогою сервісу Suno.
Пісня ніколи не використовувалася в житті.

Hello, this time I made a song about the WW1.. I made the song long ago, but I did not have motivation to make the video, Only now do I upload it.
Song was written by me with the help of ChatGPT and performed using Suno.
The song never was used in a real setting.

Lyrics/текст пісні:
[Verse]
Brother, have you heard?
A new weapon’s been stirred!
Oh, did you know? The draft’s begun,
No man can turn and run!
Germans storm the channel wide,
Marched through Belgium, swift as tide!
SO! (SO!)
Grab your rifle, brother,
Say goodbye to your mother,
Since your friend was busted,
Just as swiftly drafted,
Because...
Now there's time for a war!
[Chorus]
British sun in the sky,
(Scottish) "Oi, ye blud, what we do?"
March in line, no questions why,
Indian or Irish, African or Scottish,
We all march—we all die!
Empire stretching far and wide,
One last shot, nowhere to hide!
Germans breaking through the door,
Kaiser knocking—hear the roar!
Fix your bayonets, take your aim,
Chamber a round, it’s not a game!
Since—
Now there's time for a war!
(Now there's time for a war!)
[Verse]
Steel and smoke, the thunder cracks,
Lines break under the sharp attacks!
Mud and blood, the trenches drown,
Bodies pile as shells rain down!
Flares go up, the whistles blow,
Over the top, it’s time to go!
SO! (SO!)
Hold your breath, don’t look back,
Charge ahead, face the flak,
Because…
Now there's time for a war!
[bridge]
(Scottish accent) "SO, ye bloody man, the Germans march!"
(Irish accent) "Oh, what for? Some Aussie lad got shot?"
(French) "L'archiduc est mort, et les tranchées s'étendent!"
(Indian accent) "Oh, would you know? What fool has spoke?
This war’s just madness, men a’ choke!"
(Australian accent) "Oi, mate, sure agree!
We went to war, ain’t bloody free!"
Should there be a ditty playin’?"
(Welsh accent) "Oh, the mortars sound so cruel,
But a song shall keep us cool!"
(English accent) "Well... NOW THERE'S TIME FOR A WAR!"
[Verse]
The trenches stretch from shore to Swiss,
No man's land is death’s abyss!
The Germans rush, their hopes held tight,
But Christmas truce is lost to fight.
It has ended, shells now soar,
The officer cracks—one glance, no more!
SO! (SO!)
Stand your ground, the war goes on,
A fleeting peace is dead and gone,
Because...
Now there's time for a war!
[Chorus]
British sun in the sky,
(Scottish) "Oi, ye blud, what we do?"
March in line, no questions why,
Indian or Irish, African or Scottish,
We all march—we all die!
Empire stretching far and wide,
One last shot, nowhere to hide!
Germans breaking through the door,
Kaiser knocking—hear the roar!
Fix your bayonets, take your aim,
Chamber a round, it’s not a game!
Since—
Now there's time for a war!
(Now there's time for a war!)
[Verse]
Oh, the Russians lost their heads,
The Eastern Front is bloody red!
The Kaiser cheers—one foe is gone,
But now our fleet must carry on!
The Ottomans break, their empire cracks,
We hit their shores, they won’t fight back!
Just as well as the Aussie—
(Australian accent) "OI! THAT'S NOT US, THAT’S BLOODY AUSTRIA!"
Oops, we’ve gone a step too far!
Because...
Now there's time for a war!
[Chorus]
British sun in the sky,
(Scottish) "Oi, ye blud, what we do?"
March in line, no questions why,
Indian or Irish, African or Scottish,
We all march—we all die!
Empire stretching far and wide,
One last shot, nowhere to hide!
Germans breaking through the door,
Kaiser knocking—hear the roar!
Fix your bayonets, take your aim,
Chamber a round, it’s not a game!
Since—
Now there's time for a war!
(Now there's time for a war!)
[Bridge]
(Officer yells) "Oi, LADS! FIX YOUR BAYONETS!"
The whistle screams, the mortar roars,
The hand grenade flies 'cross the the shores!
(Australian accent) "Mate, where we been? Where we goin'?"
(Scottish accent) "Ah, yee bullocks, Through greece we're blowin'!"
(French) "J'peux pas supporter les Anglais.. mais les Allemands, encore pire!"
(Irish accent) "He's jabberin' again! What the Bloody mean?"
(Welsh accent) "Probably some ymgiprys!"
(Scottish accent) "Oi, man, give me Scrumpy, I need that one already!"
(Australian accent) "Oi, agreed! Maybe then'll lnow what said he 'fore that rush!"
(English accent) "No time, lads! Through no man's land - drinks come after!"
(Scottish accent) "AYE! NOW THERE'S TIME FOR A WAR!"
[verse]
Oh the war has ended?
The treaties signed,
The peace was done
Surely long will last,
Now there's no time for a war!
