Letra de Fathers & Foes
They let the Lion and the Monkey Crane over the hill They pistol whipped them And they skinned them For their bones of wisdom And a few golden bills Our secrets leaked out, we were left On the track Soaking up the sunshine Swallowing our pride Layaways never been good to put a dream on We'd stumble or fumble As heavy as a lie As sticky as oil sands So we laid our dream pipes In the trenches of hope But gunshot rumbles And heavy mumbles Or bloody troubles We couldn't cope with steep is the slope... And so they raised our babies heavenward And they shook their hands like Barehanded boxers after a savage round The skies dripped with pearls from the gods Pearls that the earls gathered To load their pretty pretty pistols with Layaways never been good to put a dream on We'd stumble or fumble As heavy as a lie As sticky as oil sands So we laid our dream pipes In the trenches of hope But gunshot rumbles And heavy mumbles Or bloody troubles We couldn't cope with Steep is the slope... I'll meet you up when the Sun goes down, And together we'll hit the road
