Libert belle is ringing out Across the sea And everyone sings along Though she's singing way out of key From the shores of Gallilie To the runways of Anglesea You know we're digging to hell Right past your own well As the magpies fly from Tallahasee To the sky Memory lane forgot her way After all this time And she never learned her mistakes And all the crime That caused the gulf of misery That separated you from me You know we're digging to hell
Drowning in our oil wells As the seagulls from Abu Dhabi To the sky The birds still sing their melodies Their songs of love and food and trees Oh my how they fly So little do they know yet their days are numbered so Alarms are ringing in the trees You know you've been to hell Drowning in your oil wells As the ashes fly from New York City Past the grimy clouds above New Jersey Past the kids who like to smoke like chimneys To the sky
