Story about this misheard lyric by: Katy

I know the real lyrics say "ways", but it really sounds like "new age". It makes more sense too. Also, his accent makes it sound like "new age", and "new ways comes" doesn't make sense grammatically.

Repetitive Song Lyrics:

"Gott mit Uns"
The Repetitive Lyrics:
From the old world's demise,
See an empire rise.
From the north reaching far,
Here we are.
Why They're Repetitive:
The pre-chorus repeats the most.
Submitted by: Katy
"The Lost Battalion"
The Repetitive Lyrics:
Far from their land as they made their stand,
A disregarded demand.
It's surrender or die and the stakes are high,
They live or they die, there's no time for goodbye.
Weapon in hand as they made their stand,
Still disregarding demand.
They would never comply, they would rather die,
Broke through the blockade, they were finally saved.
Why They're Repetitive:
The chorus is sung 4 times throughout the song, once in the major key. I said repetitive because it's in two parts.

Insincere Song Lyrics:

"Soldier of 3 Armies"
The Insincere Lyrics:
Started out as a reserve,
Soon promoted well deserved,
And the legend has begun...
(later)
Oh, we remember,
We remember, we remember!
Shout Lauri Törni’s name,
A soldier of 3 armies knows the game,
Deeds that echo from the past.
Rise! from beyond your grave,
Son of Finland and a green beret.
May you rest in peace at last,
Lauri Allan Törni.
Why They're Insincere:
They say they don't take sides and only tell stories. However, lyrics like "rise beyond your grave" and calling him a "legend" sounds like their opinions. I still love them, though.

Misrhymed Song Lyrics:

"Gott mit Uns"
The Misrhymed Lyrics:
Spent the night in formation,
To the battle we marched in the dawn.
We were ready to die for our king,
On the fields of Breitenfeld.
(later)
On September the seventh,
We filled their hearts with fear.
Seven times they attacked on that day,
Seven times they retreated.
Why They're Misrhymed:
The verses don't rhyme.

"Ghost Division"
The Misrhymed Lyrics:
They are the Panzer Elite.
Born to compete, never retreat,
(Ghost Division).
Living or dead, always ahead,
Fed by your dread.
Why They're Misrhymed:
The word, "division" doesn't rhyme with anything else in the chorus. Surprisingly, it's only said once.

Boasting in Song Lyrics:

"Carolus Rex [Swedish]"
The Boasting Lyrics:
[Rough translation] A new time is approaching, this time is coming to an end.
All of Stockholm see me crowned,
Cannons fire salute.
No oath taken, no oath I swear.
The crown does not come from the church,
It came directly from God.
Over the Nordics I rule
With the inheritance that I was given...
The art of war I master,
Let my name spread terror...
Everything I see, want more, who could stop me?
The whole of Europe shall bow for my army
What is yours shall be mine when I slay you
My will be done!
Comments:
Both versions have the king saying you can't question him because he was chosen by the Lord. The Swedish version is similar to the English, but this one has the king boasting about his coronation and how Europe will fear him. He is also experienced in war.

"We Burn"
The Boasting Lyrics:
Genocide?
Who will drag me to court?
There's no crime if you do not get caught
I am the law
Comments:
The officers are boasting how they won't get caught killing people in the genocide in Bosnia.

Scary Song Lyrics:

"Ghost Division"
The Lyrics:
Fast as the wind the invasion has begun,
Shaking the ground with the force of (a) thousand guns.
First in the line of fire, first into hostile land,
Tanks leading the way, leading the way.
Charging the lines with the force of a furious storm,
Fast as the lightning, phantoms swarm.
Two-hundred miles at nightfall, taken within a day,
Thus earning the name, earning the fame.
They are the Panzer Elite.
Born to compete, never retreat,
(Ghost Division).
Living or dead, always ahead,
Fed by your dread.
Always ahead as the blitzkrieg rages on,
Breaking morale with the sound of blazing guns...
Leaving a trail of destruction through a foreign land (Waging war with conviction)
Massive assault live to serve the nazi plan (Wehrmachts' pride, ghost division).
Communications broken, Phantoms too far away,
Thus earning the name, earning the fame...
Pushing the frontline forth with a tremendous force (Far ahead, breaks resistance),
Breaching the way for panzer corps (Show no fear, self-subsistent)...
Why:
This song is about the 7th Panzer Division, commanded by Erwin Rommel, that participated in the invasion of Belgium and France in 1940. By the third day of the invasion, the 7th along with three divisions commanded by General Heinz Guderian reached the river Meuse. By the 16th of May, the 7th had reached its assigned objective at Avesnes where it was supposed to stop and await further orders, but Rommel decided to press on. On the 20th of May, the division reached Arras where they encountered heavy resistance from the British forces. They reached Lille on the 27th of May which they sieged until the 31st. On the 17th of June 1940, the division was ordered to advance on Cherbourg. The division advanced 240 kilometers in 24 hours, and after two days of battle, won against the French garrison. The speed and surprise they were able to achieve was considerable, to the point that the German high command lost track of the division and thus they earned the nickname “Ghost Division." Singing about how powerful these tanks were is very scary. They could break through land so easily.

"Nuclear Attack"
The Lyrics:
Dropped from Enola, a city erased, threat of the future displayed
A power unheard of a power unseen
Flash out of nowhere, the sky is burning
At 8:16 AM, Tokyo control realized something was wrong
Reports of explosions, destruction and pain
Air raid from hell, city gone in a blaze.
August in black, B-29's coming back.
Prepare for nuclear attack
Warned but did not heed
Prepare for nuclear attack
Extermination
Strike back
Chose not to believe
Another nuclear attack.
From the southeast came the second attack, threat of tomorrow unveiled
11:02 on the 9th of August
Over the valley, like ball lightning
The bomb detonates and the land turns to waste, barren for decades to come The factories burning, the steelworks destroyed
Surrender your war, else you’ll perish in flames.
Second attack, B-29's turning back.
Why:
This song is about the two atomic bombs dropped on the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. It describes the destruction of the cities in quite scary detail.

Bad Ringtone Choices:

"Steel Commanders"
The Lyrics:
Over hundred years ago since we first rode into fire,
The rulers of the battlefield, rolling over trench and wire.
Into battle, no retreat, roll out, for our foes we spell disaster,
In the footsteps of Montgomery, Patton followed, we came after.
Flers–Courcelette showed the way.
Evolution leading to
El-Alamein until today,
We're the first ones into the fray.
Steel Commanders!
(Rule the battlefield)
Spearhead Flanders!
(Tankers leading the)
Storm of panzers!
(Battle calling the)
Steel Commanders!
From the Mark 1's introduction to the beast known as the Leopard,
With our Chieftains and Centurions, our frontline has been tempered.
From the fields of Prokhorovka to the shores of Overlord,
The beginning of the victory, Shermans rolling on to Sword...
Why:
Nobody wants to hear your ringtone celebrating the evolution of tanks at a solemn war memorial.
