War Stories by Billie Joe Armstrong Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Snow falls and we make our way to frontiers we are sent
Delay can be dangerous, danger 'til the end

[Pre-Chorus]
Back against the wall
Young men heed the call
Prisoners take control
Soon be going home

[Chorus]
War stories, Sergeant Fury
War stories, Captain Hurricane
War stories, Johnny Red
War stories, this is it, this is it

[Verse 2]
Nightfall and the tanks roll by, I see them lie in vain
Scared that I'm prepared to die, I smile to hide my pain

[Pre-Chorus]
Gonna save my soul
In the all-time low
Generals keep score
Soon be going home
[Chorus]
War stories, Sergeant Fury
War stories, Captain Hurricane
War stories, Johnny Red
War stories, this is it, this is it

[Bridge]
V-E is they say
Liberation Holiday
Invasion all a game
We're in sight of victory

[Pre-Chorus]
Up against the wall
Young men heed the call
Prisoners, oh
Soon be going home

[Chorus]
War stories, war stories
War stories, Johnny Red, war stories
War stories, Sergeant Fury
War stories, Captain Hurricane
War stories, Johnny Red
War stories, this is it, this is it
[Outro]
This is it, this is it
This is it
