BILLETS
Our old battalion billets still,
Parades as usual go on,
We buckle in with right good will
And daily our equipment don
As if we meant to fight, but no !
The guns are booming through the air,
The trenches call us on, but oh !
We don't go there, we don't go there !
At night the stars are shining bright
The old world voice is whispering near,
We've heard it when the moon was light,
And London's streets were very dear;
