Dan Bull - Unity lyrics
Daniel “Dan” Bull
[Dan Bull - Unity lyrics]
An eagle soars as the streets all crawl
With people, stores and debris on the floor
We sweep up in awe at the cathedral walls
This city's laws are in need of rehaul
Freedom calls soldiers amassing and stacking
Their ammunition deep in the courts
Stand in a Rank V
Tattered banners and flags
Enacting a massacre
The assassins see this and
Leap from the walls
Unsure what the August Decrees did at all
Are you sure the Bastille couldn't fall?
We should rally morale and
Proceed with the war locks are chopped
The drawbridge drops
The raucus flock 'til they're reaching
The courts ignoring the shots, meat
For the slaughter, bleed on the floor
Just reeking of gore
Thanks a lot to the sans-culottes
For yanking off the breeches they wore
Breaching the walls and windows
Leap to the floor and then smokescreen it
Before defeating the bourgeoisie with a claw
I'm sure we've seen this before
Better catch and dispatch him
Or that matchstick'll blast this
Bastion to ashes
That sort of action's a burning mistake
Chat to my back 'cause I'm turning away
The earliest grave is the turn of
Your fate, courtesy of the dear Third Estate
Alouette gentille alouette
Alouette je te plumerai
Je te plumerai la tête
Je te plumerai la tête et la tête
Et la tête je te plumerai la tête
The blade of the guillotine drops
I look at my watch then put in my pocket
And hurry, I've got to run in
And stop my unlucky target succumbing to harm
And crumbling under the chopping block
While onlookers watch in numbness and shock
Back to the backstreets and the cobble
No palace, these chaps dream of a hovel
Run 'round the action, gunpowder blastin'
Push past the crowds and leap up a shop wall
Two hops and I'm on the rooftop
Move to a new spot and then I soon drop
Assess the scene, eagle-eyed
Who needs to bleed
Who needs to die, you need to read
Between the lines and move
The bleating sheep aside
This is the reason why
I made the decision to leave Versailles
Grim Reaper, unsheathe my scythe then cleave
And leave deprived of the need to breathe
Or even be alive, at least
You see, I need to find Elise
'Cause she gives me a reason to be
A lease on life as we unite
Alouette gentille alouette
Alouette je te plumerai
Je te plumerai la tête
Je te plumerai la tête et la tête
Et la tête je te plumerai la tête
Concerté agilité
Fraternité
