Those that will not hear, boys, waiting for the end,
Knowing it is near, boys, trying to pretend,
Sitting in cold fear, boys, waiting for the end?

High he rears his ruby crest.
There the thundering strokes begin,
There the press and there the din;
Talymalfra's rocky shore
Echoing to the battle's roar.

While we die here in stench and noise?

If I had someone else's voice
But failure's always sounded better
Let's f**k it up, boys, make some noise!

Are never valued till they make a noise.
