It's another day in another nations land
Living in the desert on a bed of sand
Waiting for the bullets waiting for the man
Trying to survive doin what they can
When they see them
They're taking them down
They have to stop them running around
They blew the skyscrapers right out of the sky
What’s the reason the question is why
They're waiting for a figure to rear it's angry head
Really have to kill him for fear that they’d be dead
The job is being done by brave and braver men
Women and children left at home to fend
We can't imagine how they must feel
It's not a playground the game is for real
Whatever soldier and whatever war
The brave are being brave and brave even more
Heroes in the sand
Taking care of our land
Living in another world
Fighting like they've been told
Heroes in the sand
Taking care of our land
Salute you for what you do
Hope this time will soon be through
Walking down a lonely dusty road
Knowing something is there is ready to explode
Go into a building waiting for the sound
Rockets and grenades, bullets flying round
Must admire what they can do
They risk their lives and they're no fools
Maybe today is the end of the way
They show they're brave and they don’t turn away
Heroes in the sand
Taking care of our land
Living in another world
Fighting like they've been told
Heroes in the sand
Taking care of our land
Salute you for what you do
Hope this time will soon be through
