Little Mindless Soldier
By Vicky Zhuang Yi-Yin
Curled up on the floor, dying
Loneliness around you
Holding onto dear tiny life,
Young boy, do you want your revenge?
I want to hear an answer
I want to hear a ‘Yes, sir!’
Or do you want to die
Like everybody else?
I will close your wounds
All you have to do is obey
Here is a gun to shield yourself
Kill our foe and heed my orders
I want to hear an answer
I want to hear a ‘Yes, sir!’
Or do you want to die
Like everybody else?
Take my hand and do not fret
Strip your innocence, cast it away
I will save you, while you decay
Turn into my little mindless soldier
I want to hear an answer
I want to hear a yes, sir
Or do you want to die
Like everybody else?
Yes, that’s right, that’s right
My little mindless soldier
Take this little offer, and never forget
That I am now your caretaker
No longer child, no longer human
Broken, battered then bred for war
Dangling from the bonds of his master
The one now in possession of his soul
