  1. They’ve got to die, they’ve got to die

     

    They’ve got to die, they’ve got to die

    These glaring fears of success.

    Shoot ‘em between the eyes,

    Never to arise.

     

    They’ve got to die, they’ve got to die

    These baffling hopes of failure.

    Chop of their head

    So their blood runs red.

     

    They’ve got to die, they’ve got to die

    These stifling limbs of fear

    Throw them in a fire

    And witness their funeral pyre

     

    They’ve got to die, they’ve got to die

    These surly whispers of confusion

    Strangle them quiet,

    You might like it, try it

     

    They’ve got to die, they’ve got to die

    These endless burdens of despair

    Squash ‘em flat

    So that’s the end of that.

  2. Your Rainbow coloured cloak of hope

     

    Why did you throw away your Rainbow coloured cloak of hope,

    Only to wear rags of mediocrity

    When will you don it again?

     

    Why did you clip your shining wings of inspiration,

    Only to plummet to the depths of misery

    When will you soar again?

     

    Why did you cease your glorious aria of hope,

    Only to parrot the banality of others

    When will you sing again?

     

    Why did you dig up your garden of dreams

    Only to roll in the dust of despair

    When will you flower again?

     

    Why did you turn from the light of life,

    Only to kneel in the shadows of despair

    When will you shine again?

     

    Why did you forget the face of your Beloved,

    Only to bow your head in sadness

    When will you worship again?
