The Losers' Ball
I was told by my Grandma' many years ago, I was just a child: "Boy, go and grow as an honest man. Look on what you've done with pride!"
The years have passed I'm a normal lad
I won't be named in school treatises
But looking back on what I've done
Yes, there's a glimpse of pride!
The losers' ball - dance with me to the sound of the fiddle
For the ones who fall - like a cloudless sky reflected in a billow
Learn a new step for each new Babylon (build the city of lies and despair)
If you have time send a message to every form of human life: "Hey out there if someone listens. This way we won't survive!"
We'll be drawn in arrogance
Hanged by the noose of greed
A new religion of violence
A bible of bad deeds
The losers' ball - Dance with me to the sound of the fiddle
For the ones who fall - Like a cloudless sky reflected in a billow
Learn a new step for each new Babylon (build the city of lies-lust-despair)
