The Ale House Braves |
Take your fancy potions and your royal old wives |
Tell the ale-house braves they better run for their lives |
Have you seen the children with the blood on their hands? |
Have you heard about the terror spreading through the land? |
'Cos the god you pray to sees the sinners and saints |
But he doesn’t give a damn about the people he taints |
See the hounds of Fleet Street in their tatters and rags |
Selling false premonitions for a penny a bag |
All the lords and ladies with their diamonds and pearls |
Throwing stones in glass houses, not a care in the world |
Take your fancy crystals and your fossilised bone |
Tell the ale-house braves the devil’s gauntlet is thrown |
Belly full of whiskey and a pocket full of rope |
No fear in dying when you’ve lost your only hope |
The searchers round on you before your final breath |
Essence of life surrenders in the face of death |
Adverse repulsion seems to drive you to the grave |
No hearts on fire can persuade you to be saved |
Blood-sucking leeches have grown bigger in the sun |
The roses on the stone tell what you have become |
Take your fancy potions and your royal old wives |
Tell the ale-house braves they better pray for their lives |
