作词 : Phillips | |
Four thousand monks in a maelstrom | |
All crying out for release. | |
Three cheers for old Mother Hailsham | |
She's sticking to her beliefs. | |
A hundred ships took to the high seas | |
Intent on sailing the world. | |
They might have known that a rainy sky | |
Would scatter swine before pearls. | |
One by One, the Centaur is breaking its chains | |
And, after all, we're blood and flesh and pain. | |
Cover it up high, cover it up low | |
Cerebus stirring, | |
Finally learning, | |
Lamplighters' torches extinguish | |
The flames of our fate. | |
Six sturdy Bold held the Tiber | |
Across the stakes they did swarm. | |
And in a chance he was leaving | |
Throughout his watch he was warning their guards. | |
I met a man on a spreading kite | |
Who set his course for the sun. | |
But when I asked him what he'd found up there | |
He said he'd just been for fun. | |
Hour by hour the jigsaw is piecing together | |
In fear and dread, we wait the final act, | |
Gathering up high, gathering up low, | |
See how the earth quakes | |
Watch as the crust breaks | |
Beating the air as the hot wind | |
Comes my way. | |
A million men marched on Memphis, | |
To pay respects to their King | |
But when they came to Fort Lauderville, | |
They found they all had to sing – | |
So we're getting so much wiser, it's so much fun. |
