twa corbies – the tower of babylondon lyrics
[verse 1]
beneath white hill lies a buried head
the country’s enemies for to dread
but while it kept french ships away
it not prevented kings to go astray, astray
[chorus]
i am expecting even stranger things
i heard they have to clip the ravens’ wings
for if they ever flew away
we’d be lost and a kingdom would decay
[verse 2]
and not much later fell another head
a pope was aghast and a queen was dead
and a church was found on a hill of lies
while the ravens picked the dead queen’s eyes, her eyes
[chorus]
i am expecting even stranger things
because they have to clip the ravens’ wings
for if they ever flew away
we’d be lost and a kingdom would decay
[verse 3]
close by the river they build a new tower
it’s getting higher hour by hour
times may have changed, but the facts remain
the men in power still play the same old game
[chorus]
i am expecting even stranger things
they still have to clip the ravens’ wings
for if they ever flew away
we’d be lost and a lot more would decay
[outro]
already we are facing stranger things
and even if the ravens kept their wings
i do not think they’d ever fly away
there is no place where they would want to stay
