trenches…
put in trenches…
among the muck and mire…
watching rats scurry down tunnels…

and where were you old friend…
didn’t see you ’round…
enjoying the good life i see…
cakes an’ goodies…cakes an’ goodies…

i ‘member old times…
holidays an’ frolic…
yes…i ‘member…
now you’re on the inside…not me…not me…

trenches…
put in trenches…
among the muck and mire…
watching rats scurry down tunnels…
