There'll be commanders whose renown Will ring from pole to pole— I think I'll use a yellow pin For each dead thousand soul. And as these yellow pins mount up, The greens and reds ranked close Should tell me swift who wins the war And who perforce must lose. But if Selassie’s reds tell not, And Duce's greens no more, I'll give the yellows, dead, the prize, And call it battledoor!
