Pyramids And Cranes
Nicholas Allbrook
4:38The butcher, the barber, the undertaker Our land is girt by sea The looker, the quaker, the cocktail shaker Something young and free And for the miner, refiner, the web designer Dance on golden soil For the blessed, the beach The pattern they preach Wealth and something toil Advance, advance, advance The doctor, the nun, the bigger the gun All in history's page The tidal waves have turned for the boats on the run And for the average wage You hear the planes, not the birds The tune or the words You said, I said I don't care I'll sing for you, I'll dance it too Advance, advance, advance The sailor, the whaler, the Norman Mailer Don't belong in town Your mother, you failed her, you tail regale her Let the bastards drown Only the President, the Queen, burn the greens Burn them 'til they're brown A lightning bolt, a pillar of salt Sinks without a sound Advance, advance, advance Advance, I'll dance, advance Advance, I'll dance, advance Advance, advance, advance
