I fight in red for the same reasons
That Garibaldi chose the red shirt
-- Because a
few men in a field wearing red
Look like many men -- if there are
ten you will think There are a hundred; if a hundred
You will believe them a thousand.
And the colour of red dances in the enemy's rifle sights
And his aim will be bad – But, best reason of all,
A man in a red shirt can neither hide nor retreat.
