Ana Silvera - All The King's Horses lyrics

Oh the bandstand is flooded - Is flooded with rain And the saints that came marching In Jesus' name Find their bugles and buckles All rusted away They will not be salvaged For one last crusade In this city of sinners The children today Grow up chemically vicious With s** on the brain And their babies have babies So fat and so angry We feed them and feed them And still they are hungry And all the King's horses And all the King's men Couldn't put our love together again Once you gave me the moon I was after the sun That's the way it was always And will be Amen When I first saw you At the Easter Parade I knew from the start How I'd whisper your name How we'd wander the city And dance in the lanes And kiss by the lamplight To 'Lily Marlene' Now this city's for wasters The coming-of-age And hard-wired and dead-eyed With cash and c**aine But Jerusalem's coming It's just round the corner A holy man told me Though what does it matter when... All the King's horses And all the King's men Couldn't put our love together again Once you gave me the moon I was after the sun That's the way it was always And will be Amen
