Turncoat Rebellion lyrics
Song information
Artist: Skyclad
Album: The Silent Whales Of Lunar Sea
Lyrics
Drawers of water - hewers of wood
Biting their tonques as if they know what's good for them
Floating voters perched high upon fences in flame
Charmed by pipes - drugged with ale
Simple minds - born to fail
Father please tell a tale of turncoat rebellion
Watch us quietly disappear at the call for volunteers
Eager to please - keep your noses to the grindstone
Eager to please - your shoulders to the wheel
Tuggers of forelocks - doffers of caps
Blinded by greed they stepped into the traps laid for them
Given a video - sattelite dish
National lottery - saturday wish
Simple lives - tropical fish in habitat aquaria
Mad as hell but afraid to speak
Our thin red line is a yellow streak
Eager to please - keep your backs to the plough
Eager to please - as we grow so we weep
Charmed by pipes - drugged with ale
Simple minds - born to fail
Father please tell a tale of turncoat rebellion
