FIRST GROUP
On silent feet it came
Breathing a sheet of flame, it came
Closing in on its rightful prey
Burning a hundred years away

The morning of the dragon truth lit up the street
The tiger we were stalking walked on paper feet
And in the clear white heat of dawn
Was gone

FIRST GROUP                            SECOND GROUP
From every door they came              victory
These children born of war, they came  victory
Sharing a secret word, which they      victory
Waited a hundred years to say

FIRST GROUP                            SECOND GROUP
The morning of the dragon truth lit    the morning of the dragon all the
[up the street                     [walls fell down
The tiger we were stalking walked      brother greeted brother in a
[on paper feet                       [sudden light
And in the clear white heat of dawn    and in the endless night
It's gone                              was gone

FIRST GROUP                          SECOND   THIRD GROUP
On silent feet it came               victory  may all our children learn
Breathing a sheet of flame, it came  victory
Closing in on its rightful prey      victory  the tide of right will turn
Burning a hundred years away

The morning of the dragon truth lit up the street
The tiger we were stalking walked on paper feet
And in the clear white heat of dawn
Was gone
