Lyrics
Legends of the Po
Bit by bit
and day by day
Flesh against bone,
Paving the only way
Ounce for ounce
and pound for pound
So tired of the tale
We should close the sale
We should make some waves
A chance like this
Isn't often seized
We've worked our fingers to the bone
Blood and thunder by degrees
Spitting nails and sinking like stones
So done with being alone
Can we turn back the clock ?
Should we turn back the clock ?
No prizes for guessing
Actions matching words
Avoiding the hemorrhaging
And following the herds
A chance for discovery
Our Blood is worth bottling
I'll keep it close to me
