Out on the frontline, robots stand tall
+
Machine guns humming, answering the call
+
Thermal eyes watching through night and day
+
Holding the line; in a mechanical way
+
No flesh to bleed, no hearts to break
+
Just steel and circuits, for heaven's sake
+
Horses versus machines, what a sight to see
+
Galloping thunder meets the buzzing bee
+
Horses versus machines, in this crazy war
+
One side's from the future; the other's from before
+
Over the hill comes the riders bold
+
Hooves pounding mud, stories centuries old
+
Charging the drones like knights of yore
+
But the sky starts buzzing; horses hit the floor
+
Buck and rear, they throw riders high
+
Drones just hover, waving bye-bye
+
Horses versus machines, what a sight to see
+
Galloping thunder meets the buzzing bee
+
Horses versus machines, it's plainly absurd
+
Like the Light Brigade got the final word
+
Robots sit patient, forty-five days strong
+
Suppressing the charge where the riders throng
+
No need for rations, no sleep required
+
Just remote control; they never get tired
+
Meanwhile, the cavalry dreams of the past
+
Wondering how long this charge can last
+
Horses versus machines, what a sight to see
+
Galloping thunder meets the buzzing bee
+
Horses versus machines, who thought this up?
+
Sending poor ponies to drink from that cup
+
Drones play tag with the frightened steeds
+
Riders tumble down amongst the weeds
+
Horses bolt free, smarter than the men
+
Leaving the soldiers forlorn, to try again
+
Who thought this up in some smoky room?
+
Cavalry charges to a certain doom!
+
One side builds bots that save human lives
+
The other sends horses where nothing survives
+
Funny old world when the past meets the new
+
Hooves against circuits - who knew what they'd do?
+
Maybe it's time we all took a pause
+
To find a better game, with a much better cause
+
Horses versus machines, what a sight to see
+
Galloping thunder meets the buzzing bee
+
Horses versus machines, let's call it a draw
+
Time for a better way, that's the real law
+
Horses versus machines
+
Horses versus machines
+
How absurd
+
