Generals & Majors Lyrics & Video

XTC See albums and popular songs

Generals and Majors ah ah!
They're never too far
From battlefields so glorious
Out in a world of their own
They'll never come down
Till once again victorious

Generals and Majors always
Seem so unhappy 'less they got a war

Generals and Majors ah ah!
Like never before are tired of being action less

Calling Generals and Majors
Generals and Majors everywhere
Calling Generals and Majors
Your World War 3 is drawing near

Generals and Majors ah ah!
They're never too far
Away from men who made the grade
Out in a world of their own
They'll never come down
Until the battle's lost or made

Generals and Majors always
Seem so unhappy 'less they got a war

Generals and Majors ah ah!
Like never before are tired of being in the shade

Calling Generals and Majors
Generals and Majors everywhere
Calling Generals and Majors, hey
Your World War 3 is drawing near, World War 3

Generals and Majors ah ah!
They're never too far
From battlefields so glorious
Out in a world of their own
They'll never come down
Till once again victorious

Generals and Majors
Generals and Majors
Generals and Majors
...

XTC - Generals and Majors: Promo for the "Generals and Majors" single. Apparently this was shot at the last minute after a meeting with Richard Branson, hence all the shots of him goofing around, and also the band's presence in the grounds of his manor! All very peculiar. As Joh (video from YouTube)
