letra de the merry wake - alasdair roberts
will you come to the merry wake, my bonny lassie?
will you come to the merry wake, my bonny bride?
come to the merry wake all for your lover’s sake
bonny saint kentigern stands upon clyde
all the day long we’ll be drinking like masons
mixing the gunpowder into the wine
fixing our liquor in baptismal basins
bonny saint kentigern stands upon tyne
choirs of liars are silently keening
the gospel of woman, the mirror and comb
see the deniers, they bring a demeaning
religion that rosе from the sewers of romе
the sound of our music is shrouded in linen
the pipe and the drum under cold iron sway
venerable ossian and n0ble maccrimmon
will lay down their weapons and soon pass away
the whole of the kingdom is clouded in brimstone
sons against fathers and fathers ‘gainst sons
collar to shoulder and thighbone to shinbone
there never was heard such confusion of tongues
in hour of mayhem, in time of misgiving
some turn to pastor, some turn to priest
some would consort with the miserable living
but we’d rather sport with the gleeful deceased
so strike up the cèilidh and lay down your burdens
the queen of the unseen abode’s in the room
it’s not the round reel, it’s not the gay gordons
but she’ll dance a dark morris all over your tomb
the ranter and the shaker and the wife of the quaker
under the cypress tree all join hands
the glum undertaker will take to their maker
their bodies, relieved of all tiresome demands
the scribes and the clerics like tribes of hysterics
will hectically dervish and turn widdershins
be merry until they heretically perish
then ascend on their merits or swing for their sins
and the lord lends his everlasting arms
in an answer to your little prayers
for the womb that begets and the worm that devours
so fling yourself into a posture of rapture
a new world will rise from the ruins of ours
will you come to the merry wake, my bonny lassie?
will you come to the merry wake, my bonny may?
come to the merry wake for your lover’s sake
new world is only a c-ckstride away
