Song language: English
Canary |
| The call of the ore |
| Stretched the lengths of the plains |
| And drew all the men to the iron ore range |
| & From the windows I would watch |
| Them gain in white and lose in black |
| Here in the dark no need to be scared |
| ‘cause I will be your guiding hand |
| And in the shafts |
| When they wouldn’t come back |
| Cold red faces dressed in black |
| Their dormant lips had sealed their fate |
| Without a warning they knew too late |
| Here in the dark no need to be scared |
| ‘cause I will be your guiding hand |
| scorched throats sang funeral songs |
| and asked why they had been undone |
| until canary like the sun came down down down |
| into the mines |
| Now trees and leaves grow through the floors |
| And in the mines there rots the ore |
| And for those who never came back |
| Canary sings for those dressed in black |
| Here in the dark no need to be scared |
| ‘cause I will be your guiding hand |
