"Dear John"

A tasty little morsel by Australian band Stevenson's Rocket about a guy who leaves to fight in world war one/two (you choose) with the promise that he'll write to his betrothed every day but she forgets about him and falls in love with someone else so he gets rather ticked off and vows to strangle her a bit. Not too much though.

"I was waved away on a rainy day/ Oh hankies and tears won't replace the years/Stolen away for the gracious king/Slaughtered and taught you not to fear a thing/ I'll send a letter via British Post/Either pigeon or bottle I miss you the most/Brothers wrapped tight 'gainst the winter chill/Time to kill and blue blood to spill/Over the top/To be mowed down/For king and crown to become a field of - / Over the top/ To be mowed down/For king and crown/To become a field of poppies/'Twill all be over by Christmas Day/Do you still love me though I'm away/Your heart's grown cold and fallen victim/To the Crawling wiles of your better judgement/A final Dear John for this stupid fool/A fitting end with a death so cruel/Skin peeled back by a shrapnel blast/To expose to Jerry all that's left of my heart/Over the top/To be mowed down/For king and crown to become a field of - / Over the top/ To be mowed down/For king and crown/To become a field of poppies/Wading through seas of rich red blood/To get to you and wring your bloody neck/I gave you my heart and what did you do?/You broke it - you bloody little slapper!"
