shed seven - cemetry gates lyrics

[chorus]
a dreaded sunny day
so i meet you at the cemetery gates
keats and yeats are on your side
a dreaded sunny day
so i meet you at the cemetery gates
keats and yeats are on your side
while wilde is on mine

[verse 1]
so we go inside and we gravely read the stones
all those people, all those lives
where are they now?
with+a loves and hatеs and passions just like mine
they wеre born, and then they lived
and then they died
seems so unfair, i want to cry

[verse 2]
you say, “‘ere thrice the sun done salutation to the dawn”
and you claim these words as your own
but i’ve read well and i’ve heard them said
a hundred times, maybe less, maybe more

[verse 3]
if you must write prose and poems
the words you use should be your own
don’t plagiarise or take on loan
’cause there’s always someone, somewhere
with a big nose, who knows
and who trips you up and laughs when you fall
who’ll trip you up and laugh when you fall
[verse 4]
you say, “‘ere long done do does did”
words which could only be your own
and then produce the text from whence was ripped
some dizzy wh0re, 1804

[chorus]
a dreaded sunny day, so let’s go where we’re happy
and i meet you at the cemetery gates
oh, keats and yeats are on your side
a dreaded sunny day, so let’s go where we’re wanted
and i meet you at the cemetery gates
keats and yeats are on your side, but you lose
’cause whale blubber wilde is on mine
