Tumbledown soft falling word
Whistled on another shore.
Lies a graveyard for a conflict
In a penguin island war.

Port Stanley take a quaff or two
Then yomp back to the bar,
Order up some sanity
In a penguin island war.

Sidewound the mirage phantoms
Match the harriers who are
Only wasps amid dead whalers
In a penguin island war.

Will younger bones mark history,
Or count the dead so far?
Have the sons and brothers bled in vain,
In a penguin island war?
