lyrics

Many years ago
We get up to dance
We are what we are
We are love and art
We are young at work
We are what we are
And I’m ok, I guess

Everything is true
Flowers in their hair
We sing never blues
We aren’t anywhere
And everywhere I go
‘There goes Jake the peg’
‘I’m not him’, I said

Take me down to the docks, Lord, to think on the day
God, I hate how we love but love it all the same
Be my theatre of war and my war of the rose

Cosmos on the shelf
Smoke to fucking health
And I want to be high And I want to be well
To stay back every night
After they kill the lights
And rethink the lines
Take me down to the docks, Lord, to think on the day
God, I hate how we love but love it all the same
Be my theatre of war and my war of the rose

Oh, my theatre of war and my war of the rose
Leave me here now to fight, leave me here you can go
Oh my theatre of war and my day of the dead.
