|
Jacob's ladder |
|
Like rusty old nails |
|
At the bottom of the sea |
|
Telling no tales |
|
For the good of the |
|
Admiralty |
|
You jump when you're told to |
|
Through the open door |
|
And the King of |
|
Norway He's the man you all died for (Chorus) |
|
On this Jacob's |
|
Ladder The only way up is down |
|
Three days in the water |
|
Watching all the secrets drown |
|
Jacob's Ladder "And they sent him to the wars to be slain, to be slain And they sent him to the wars to be slain"(Repeats) |
|
A thousand lifetimes |
|
Left standing at the docks |
|
In the bar down in |
|
Whitehall |
|
They're sure the boat won't rock |
|
In a file marked ' |
|
Secret' In a drawer kept closed |
|
Nobody wonders |
|
Because nobody knows (Chorus) |
|
About this |
|
Jacob's Ladder |
|
The only way up is down |
|
Three days in the water |
|
Watching all the secrets drown |
|
Jacob's Ladder "And they sent him to the wars to be slain, to be slain And they sent him to the wars to be slain"(Repeats) (Chorus) |
|
On this Jacob's |
|
Ladder The only way up is down |
|
Three days in the water |
|
Watching all the secrets drown(Repeats) |
|
Jacob's Ladder |
|
O Bulldog |
|
Leader, sooner or later we'll dig up the body and try your cadaver (Repeats) |
