Skyclad piosenki

Penny Dreadful Forgive me if I'm out of order - this new "music" has no soul. It may be good for making money, (sadly that is not my goal). Integrity and honesty are words that you don't understand, but you're the best - it says so in the penny dreadfu...

Polkageist! One day whilst out exploring in some far-flung foreign corner, I took respite from my journey to admire the local fauna. When from the twilight distance a peel of bells and laughter, set my heart-strings fluttering like bats through chapel rafters...

Postcard From Planet Earth Sorry it has been so long since you received my last transmission, meanwhile I've studied them - learned about their strange condition. Now I think I understand why they live in such confusion, sadly they'll never change - I have co...

Quantity Time Yet another sluggard hour stumbles past, it's no wonder life looks better through the bottom of a glass. These bitter litanies you keep repeating, are verbal fingers down my mental blackboard screeching. Each moment in your company was of more...

R'Vannith I still hear the screams of my lover torn from me Still taste the salt of her tears on my face As they left me for dying my shattered corpse writhed On a pyre of anger - I choked on the stench of disgrace. Flint and bone are all we wield Against th...

Ring Stone Round An apple in the eye of the storm that's coming When winds of change sweep 'cross the land These "old grey men" have braved the weather Watched kingdoms fall while they still stand. Walk with me down moonlit ley-lines Farther than the eye can...

Salt On The Earth (Another Man's Poison) Out of the East a prince shall rise To summon fire from the skies. I'm lord of this wasteland - where my word is law My bedfellows pestilence, famine and war Turn children to orphans - make wives into widows Then laug...

Schadenfreude Moonlit faces - ghostly white Robed in midnight leather Death - heads adorn their necks But they have lived forever. Malign, nocturnal predators In search of human cattle Drawn toward their anguished cries Drowned by machine gun rattle. Compas...

Science Never Sleeps Science never sleeps - so I'm singing it a lullabye, of wolves in sheeps clothing - devils in disguise, and lab-coats draped over big black lies. They cover their stupidity by calling it "stupology", rearrange your world without one word...

Single Phial I have walked the earth so many times before your birth, Today is only yesterday's tomorrow. And as a Gardner in Eden it was i who sowed the seed then I've come to reclaim this life you borrow. Singing 'ring a ring o' rosies' for your final...

Sins Of Emission There's a beast in the cellar There since this building was made. He's lurked in the shadows From when its' foundations were laid. From my "double-helix" he taunts me His primal voice roars It mocks my humanity Turning the key in locked door...

Skyclad I'll sing to you of days departed, Times when men proud and stouthearted carved their names on history's bloody page, The corpse of chivalry long dead Is turning in his loamy bed indignant at your new 'enlightened' age White-collared knights at boardr...

Snake Charming You'll meet his kind in the strangest of places, great what you find if you turn enough stones. Legerdmain eyes wear the sweetest of faces - you're quick to invite into your hearts and homes. But the serpent and worms are his real kith and kin...

Something To Cling To Sometimes life feels like an ocean, cruel and far too cold to mention. Though you raise a great commotion - still no-one pays you attention There's no sail on the horizon, when the shark-fins gather near, you watch your chances of surviv...

Spinning Jenny She came down from the Western Hills when we were not prepared I turned deaf ears to words of warning now I'm running scared. Casting caution to the wind now that the cat's away I say my grace - fill my face (then for forgiveness pray). Gon kno...

So here they are, these heroes, these giants Holding there over our affairs, heedless to the human cares Like spotlights, a backdrop for performance Wishing I could be so clear, certain to shine and charge the night Where all these roles I play, whatever t...

The condition of the people and our national priorities Get broadcast across the country like a speech from royalty Speech, want and fear are the freedoms that we're fighting for The pursuit of happiness of course and who could want for anymore? Yes, the n...

Wake up Jacob now, wake up John Day’s a-wasting, great things to be done Super-highways don’t build themselves Estates and empires by the stroke of twelve Where we fit in the scheme of things? We’re just debris blown by the wind So forget your woman and...

Still Spinning Shrapnel All I hear are peace talks and battle cries. Everyone's losing - nobody's winning, So run for your lives when the shrapnel's spinning. Pictures of the crippled - wounded on the frontline Someone else's problem - you're sitting on a l...

Councillor, I love your city fair With its vistas and its good clean air that we all breathe Councillor, I love your city fair With its moguls and its gurus who sing “boom or bust” It’s okay because we’re free men and in God we trust Love your superculture B...
