Written by Emmerson Barrett, Remington Leith, Sebastian Danzig
I knew a sick boy soldier Who grinned at life Slept soundly Through the darkness And whistled to the night He comes from a town of normal Which he is ashamed People will remember him kindly But no one remembers his name
It gets cold in the winter sometimes I get lost when the feeling ain't right And mother can't sleep at night She gets lost in the feeling But her feeling ain't right
I knew a sick boy soldier Who laughed at life Slept soundly Through the darkness And whistled to the night He comes from a town of normal Which he is ashamed People will remember him kindly But no one remembers his name
It gets cold in the winter sometimes I get lost when the feeling ain't right And mother can't sleep at night She gets lost in the feeling But her feeling ain't right (No no no no no no no no)
Oh carry on The ships and sails are gone This place is falling down Lord it's crumbling It's crumbling to the ground Oh carry on The pirates and sailors have gone This ship is sinking now Lord it's crumbling It's crumbling to the ground
It gets cold in the winter sometimes I get lost when the feeling ain't right And mother can't sleep at night She gets lost in the feeling But her feeling ain't right (No no no no no no no no)
