Low Lands

from 1987 by Champion Leader

/

lyrics

I heard the Drums!
I heard those banging drums, they sound like guns,
but ev’ry bullets gone awry

I heard those drums—
those mothers’ sons—
And ev’ry song’s an empty shell beside...

(You) deny the day, (you) deny the night,
(you) deny the dark, (you) deny the light.
Nothing is as it seems, because it seems it’s
all or nothing
on those means streets in the Low Lands

The pearls have been trampled by the swine
The traitors took the front line
But all is forgiven and will be fine...
...unless you’d rather find
the Low Lands

I heard those Company men.
Those talented men, those charming men.
Big as brass, suit and tie.
I heard those Company men,
like the sad echo of that old song
that’s been sung once,
twice,
too many times


There is a SOUND:
in the ground all around coming down.
