| | Everywhere Lyrics Artist(Band):Billy Bragg
Those were the final orders to come down that day Waiting to be saved in the Philippines You'll wait forever for the young Marines Now I believe to be here is right But I have to say I'm scared tonight Crouching in this hole with a mouth full of sand What comes first the country or the man Look at those slanted eyes coming up over the hill Catching us by surprise, it's time to kill or be killed Over here, over there, it's the same everywhere A boy cries out for his mama before he dies for his home All my life I wanted to be As clever and strong as my best friend Lee We grew up together along Half Moon Bay Lee was Japanese, born in the USA When Tommy was fighting Jerry along the River Seine Me and Lee wanted to do the same Then they bombed Pearl Harbour at the break of day I was headed for these islands while Lee was hauled away They said look at his slanted eyes, he's guilty as guilty can be Sent here as enemy spies to sabatage the Land of the Free I never got home, my platoon was never saved That little fox hole became my island grave Lee got out of jail but a prisoner he remained Till he ended his own life to lose that ball and chain And they said Oh Little Slanted Eyes can't you forgive and forget And he said, Oh Mr Friendly Ghost Can you catch water in a net?

Review about Everywhere Unforgettable Song | Reviewer: AJ | 3/25/2007 One of the most beautiful, powerful... haunting songs I've ever heard. A true listening experience on CD, but even more hard-hitting when Bragg does it live. Saw him sing it in Atlanta and it was one of those rare moments when you can hear a pin drop in a crowd of 3500 people. Is this review helpful to you?
