Anzac Day
It's Anzac Day today
Or lads were sent away
To fight a war
And what the hell for
Because they had to pay

High and Tight - For Contest
High and Tight – for contest
His soldier stood up – ramrod stiff
when he caught the first sensuous whiff
piqued his passion to plunder
scented cheese from down under
sweet downstairs aroma of Quiffe.

He Had Charisma
A soldier by the name of Patricia
Was teased by the guys in the militia
Instead of a grenade
They made him a maid
In his army fatigues he had charisma

Irish History Lesson
An Army of soldiers from Prussia
Were ordered to add P to Russia
But down fell the snow
Where they stood to go
So Saint Patrick preached, "Let God flush yuh!"

Unprofessional Soldier?
If to you professionalism of a soldier
is robotic obedience to orders for murder,
then count me out,
I'm not a lout,
I'm much more than that silver dog tag's serial number !

Beggar of Old London Town
Beggar of Old London Town
A beggar man of old London Town,
Sadness on his face, heavy frown.
Gave him kindness and food,
Lighten his heart and his mood,
Old Soldier who fought for the Crown.

Collateral Damage
Daddy was a soldier, always had an itch
Down along the bayou, daddy served a hitch
Wouldn’t you know?
He loved Madam Laveau
Guess that makes me a son-of-a-witch

Bright and Bolder
We have heard someone bright and bolder
Will always end up being the best soldier
Sure Shines a lot,
And a great shot;
Will remain in their spirit even when older.

Being Both Best and Fairest
Being Best
In land thought they were the fairest
When told became totally embarrassed
So when piano they started playing
Choir sand and around were parading
Saying we are both fairest the best.

For Sermon Had Hunted
For Sermon Had Hunted
Again and again we had hunted
For copy of his sermon we wanted;
Much feeling in it would be found;
Adore each word and its sound;
Great knowledge to sermon amounted.

Privates
How do you define the word “privates”
A low-ranking soldier, or genitals, fancy that
Being quite naughty
A wee bit saucy
Cause sexually, I'm really quite a great catch

Again Off the Bat
Again Off the Bat
Again, another thought came off the bat;
Trump has truly become a spoiled brat;
What he wanted to him was always given;
Never desired poor behavior to be forgiven,
And both his body and lip sure seem so fat.

We Placed a Perfect Wreath
We Placed A Perfect Wreath
On unknown soldier tomb we placed wreath,
Body remains are buried below and beneath;
That we respect,
In manner correct;
All that was left are broken bones and teeth.

Pivotal Point
Pivotal Point
Private a point that is pivotal,
In Army and will fill each bill;
Truly necessary and very vital;
Soldier, bravely bares the title;
So beans had to tell and spill.

PRIVATES.

That's quite naughty
Also a bit saucy

Big Surprise
A young fellow soldier from Kentucky
He considered himself rather lucky
Stationed at FtKnox,
Opened a vault box
But, alas, it was empty … how sucky!

Mushroom
Once I passed by a road wearing
a uniform like soldier
it was kind of a day
I could not remember
later on when coming back home
I found a mushroom and interpreted
that it was all either lightening
or darkening.
