Texas Stomp

from Terrestrian Hymns by Bateau Ivre

lyrics

One second there I heard your voice
’t said "do you really have a choice?"
t’wards victory, never defeat
see oh me the iron bleeds

on sacred ground the air was moist
from oil & sweat & grownup’s toys
heart misses one feeble beat
mute the voice of dread in me

Master, the coin is tossed.

at first pull it felt so bad
floor of bones & bowels & blood
in the mist a solid wall
ripped down by a cannonball

Master, the coin is tossed.
Caesar, the dice have dropped.

hush hush don't run around
hush hush don't make no sound

Master, the coin was tossed
Caesar, the dice have dropped
Master, we fought & lost.
