the steamer

from mont amba by Bateau Ivre

lyrics

steer the steamer, whip the leash
snatch & drill and make them bleed
swallow silence with a sigh

kill and let live as I please
draw a breath thick with disease
darkness heavy on our minds
and hornbills are flying

steal the ore collect the toll
drunk with greed you’ve lost your soul
sealed the future with a lie
so spell it out
