The Germans came with all brute force
Then the Japanese came and ran their course
They came like a giant, rumbling wave
They thought all other races must behave
They tortured and killed the countries they seized
And because of this, Hitler was very pleased
But the torturing and killing, the country’s citizens would not permit
So a resistance to hoard them off was submit
They would go in night and blow up trains
Or free prisoners from their chains
Some resistances succeeded
But always more men were needed
The Yugoslavian resistance whole-heartedly won
And had retaken most all of it’s country before the war was done
But others were destroyed in a single blow
For the Nazis outnumbered them one to a hundred or so
And some claimed victory and some failed
And some died for their cause and others greatly prevailed
But all did their part in the great resistance
Every single one gave some assistance
Even if they weren’t a soldier, they still did their part
Each one gave something from deep down in their heart
Without these people you would not be where you are today
You might be under a ruler that you must obey
So be happy you’re free and can make your own choices
Be happy that you can speak to different voices
For freedom is something we take for granted
But without it you’d think it’s enchanted
