a.p. clarke - clap your hands lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
come on gather round, there’s a storm outside
there’s a tale to tell, about a man who lied
and he left his bride, there on his wedding night
to sail across the sea and there to fight

[verse 2]
now i tried to make her happy as i kept her warm at night
and i know that she was lonely for her own
and when he died they brought her back his burnt black bones

[chorus]
clap your hands, clap your hands, clap your hands to the funeral band
come on clap your hands, clap your hands
we’re going way down to the bottom of the world

[verse 3]
well we saved some wood and piano string
for the happy songs we forgot to sing
now come in close, it’s getting cold
now the fires are down all around the town

[verse 4]
did you ever hear the story of my sweetheart saint marie?
the only thing she left us were her shoes
and when the night draws in we can burn them too
[chorus]
clap your hands, clap your hands, clap your hands to the funeral band
come on clap your hands, clap your hands
we’re going way down to the bottom of the world

[verse 5]
come on now: the band’s about to play
we had our time and now it’s gone away
so boys and girls now if you please, everyone get on your knees
and pray

[verse 6]
can you feel the beat, filling up your ears?
like a steady drum, like a rising hum
now you can scream, if you are scared
but n0body will hear you for the beat in theirs

[verse 7]
everybody has a monster on the other side of the world
and every beat’s another step towards you
and when he’s right behind you he will stop…

[chorus]
clap your hands, clap your hands, clap your hands to the funeral band
come on clap your hands, clap your hands
we’re going way down to the bottom of the world
