Testo The Axe - U.K. Subs
Testo della canzone The Axe (U.K. Subs), tratta dall'album Work in Progress
You lit a fuse
And then you ran away
You cried all day
When the axe came down
You pay your money
You take your chance
But now you do a different dance
There'll be no pipers playing
When the axe comes down
Said the streets of the city
Were paved in gold
But you were bought and sold
Before the axe came down
You ran the gauntlet
You ran from the law
But you ran out of luck
When the axe came down
Now I can't tell you why
The martyrs had to fry
Some say it's just
An act of God
Who dares wins
Who hesitates is lost
And now you pay the cost
When the axe comes down
And all you paid-up Republicans
Who live by the gun
Your time will come
When the axe comes down
For every generation
Chest filled with hate
Running from the blade
When the axe comes down
The out-of-touch and the drunk men
Who build a braver world
They call your blood
When the axe comes down
