lyrics

see the Pilot ferrying blood
slash sugar cane stick and grind it down
jack asses validated in papyrus God save kings
all the wicker dancing tramps of islands, pious priestess pull your eyelids, candle lit vigil for the gilded siren, God save kings
well I prayed in tune to your crescent moon now blood is on my chest and a dead man’s boots, cradling the gun, my last of kin, God save kings ho!
[when I came to the valley I saw your name and I can’t get myself through a night again till I cut em down from the lynchers on the horses that you play
hear the drums beckoning the pirate prince, rattle my bones in the widow fields, I can see the flags comin over the hills, God
save kings]
see the pilot ferrying blood
slash sugar cane stick and grind it down
jack asses validated in papyrus God save kings
all the wicker dancing tramps of islands, pious priestess pull your eyelids, candle lit vigil for the gilded siren, God save kings
