Nervous Young Men - Napoleon ( March Into Russia) lyrics

Take all their islands and
They’ll play their violins
Bright happy songs for evaporation
Into the 900 mile an hour wind
Petals float on a river of air

The planets are pin balling inside the sky
Falling down at your feet
With the rings to your spine
Swelling inside you 'til you finally stumble
Down in the elevator shaft

As we march, across, the countryside
As we march, across, the countryside

The imagery's next but the
World is all meaningless
Had their songs playing on autopilot
We’re all distracted by the terrible acting
The noise from the audience
Makes me extremely tense

Ready for the test with the
Notes on your left
Like a dog on a short noose
Just taking loose breaths
If we could repress all
The pressure of gravity we’d float away

And march, across, the countryside
As we march, across, the countryside

Scorched-earth policy
They burned everything as they left
Freezing our legs off in some territory
Grabbing people

(garbled speech)

Scorched-earth policy
They burned everything as they left
Freezing our legs off in some territory
Grabbing people

The hair on your head is making me dizzy
Our Lady of good council flies away
The Sun changes size and circles in the sky
Basel, Switzerland, Summer of 1566
(Or was it 1666?)

As we march, across, the countryside
As we march, across, the countryside
