The Unknown Soldier

The Doors · Waiting For The Sun [1968]

Wait until the war is over

And we're both a little older.

The unknown soldier.



Breakfast where the news is read.

Television children fed.

Unborn living. Living dead.

Bullet strikes the helmet's head



And it's all over

For the unknown soldier.

It's all over

For the unknown soldier.

Make a grave for the unknown soldier

Nestled in your hollow shoulder.

The unknown soldier.



Breakfast where the news is read.

Television children fed.



Bullet strikes the helmet's head



And, it's all over.

The war is over.

It's all over.

The war is over.

Well, all over, baby.

All over, baby.

Oh, over, yeah.

All over, baby..
