Here’s the original:
Here’s the rewrite:
Instrumental
There is chaos at the front
German forces on the hunt
There’s reports from scared soldiers
They were attacked by the deceased
They’d been breathing chlorine gas
Watched the Russians die in mass
March to fortress confident
And watch the Russians rise again
And that’s when the Russians are fighting again
Osowiec rise from the dead
Leading the charge; Russian men
Facing their graves yet again
Russian men
Fight again
Die again
Osowiec rise from the dead
Leading the charge; Russian men
Facing their graves yet again
Russian men
Fight again
Die again
Instrumental
These combatants spar:
Hindenburg against the Tsar
Move his 12 battalions large
Into an undead counter-charge
Germans fighting for their lives
As their adversaries rise
Russians won’t surrender, no
Spit their lungs up in their foe
And that’s when the Russians are fighting again
Osowiec rise from the dead
Leading the charge; Russian men
Facing their graves yet again
Russian men
Fight again
Die again
Osowiec rise from the dead
Leading the charge; Russian men
Facing their graves yet again
Russian men
Fight again
Die again
Instrumental
And that’s when the Russians are fighting again
Osowiec rise from the dead
Leading the charge; Russian men
Facing their graves yet again
Russian men
Fight again
Die again
Osowiec rise from the dead
Leading the charge; Russian men
Facing their graves yet again
Russian men
Fight again
Die again
Story:
During the Battle of Osowiec Fortress in 1915, German Field Marshal Paul Von Hindenburg ordered the bombardment of the fortress with an artillery barrage of chlorine gas to eradicate the 900 Russian defenders. After the bombardment 7,000 German soldiers advanced upon the fortress expecting little to no resistance when 100 disfigured Russians, coughing up blood and pieces of their own lungs, surprised the Germans with a counter-charge. The zombie-like Russians opened fire and attacked the Germans with affixed bayonets causing mass panic and forced the Germans to flee back into their own traps inflicting more casualties. The remaining Russian defenders who survived the gas attacks seized the opportunity to raze the fortress and withdraw while the Germans hesitated. "The Attack of the Dead Men" spawned German legends about unkillable Russian soldiers rising from the dead to fight.
That's a really cool rewrite, and the story behind it is interesting too
