Competition Entry

War, war, we are off to war
Marching along the dusty road.
Bang, bang, down we go into the trenches of war
Now, now, we may not return home alive for supper
If we aren’t alive I will have to be
Our bodies eating right through us and rotting

war is dangerous, horrible, disgusting
and not very nice place
I mean loads of peoples families are gone, like dead
I wish the war was gone
People should not go thorugh this.

War, war can be horrible
War can be bloody and gruesome.
War can be funny like a man putting a bomb in his pants.
In the war all you will hear guns.
Girls think things are pink and fluffy.

War is sad
War is hard
What are we all fighting for?
Waiting and wondering if it will ever end
Want to see all the happiness again
When I see the children that miss their mom and dad
It’s just so sad
When is this war going to end?
Peace,love and joy
shall we have
When the war ends.

The war is tough and can be rough
All the fighting for their country
Can be tough
People waiting for news at home
Wondering if their beloved
Will ever come home

The children worried about their life.
Worried about all the fights.
To scared to sleep
Will the bombs hit their street?
Will they win or will they lose
The war the war goes on for so long it has to stop
So I wrote this song.

Air raid siren…
gone
Devastated faces,
In the dusty town.
Roofs like match sticks.
No houses,
Just piles of houses.
10 o’clock strikes
A burning smell
The spiky wood pricks your fingers
No windows, just smashed glass.
Torn curtains flapping in the wind.
Last night’s flames licked the building.
Nowhere to live,
What next?

Competition Winner!

In a draughty old village
Many miles away
Many people fighting all day
Over the prime minister’s say
About the way people behave

OH NO, THERE’S A CIVIL WAR, ON ITS WAY!!!

I want to run away,
I’m scared,
The bangs are getting closer
I’ve been sent away in the countryside…

World War 2 was a big fight
Lots of soldiers full of might,
Crowds of men ready to pound
Soldiers going homeward bound

All their children and their wives
Wanting to save their lives,
You’d better not look
Just stick to a book.

Hiding from their enemies
Locked the door but lost the keys,
People shooting with their guns
Wanting to see their sons.

Why is war?
what is war for?
people lose there parents in war
war is knocking at our door
so hide under the floor
war is here
BANG BANG!
another man is dead
shot in the head
everyone is dead
people at the funeral
cry goodbye
and families missed because of war

War is a world war,
That shall never end,
Because it is a world war,
It might never end,
But why are we even fighting?
It is a world with war,
that shall end!
