A Silver Mt. Zion - Built Then Burnt (Hurrah! Hurrah!) Lyrics

Send "Built Then Burnt (Hurrah! Hurrah!)" ringtone to your cell

Dear brothers and sisters

Dear enemies and friends

Why are we all so alone here?

All we need is a little more hope

A little more joy

All we need is a little more light

A little less weight

A little more freedom

If we were an army

And if we believed that we were an army

And we believed that everyone was scared

Like little lost children in their grown-up clothes and poses

So we ended up alone here

Floating through long wasted days

Or great tribulations

While everything felt wrong

Good words strong words

Words that could've moved mountains!

Words that no one ever said

We were all waiting to hear those words

And no one ever said them

And the tactics never hatched

And the plans were never mapped

And we all learned not to believe

And strange lonesome monsters loped through the hills

Wondering why

Though it is best to never ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever wonder why

So tangle

O tangle us up in bright red ribbons!

Let's have a parade

It's been so long since we had a parade

So let's have a parade!

Let's invite all our friends

And all our friends' friends!

Let's promenade down the boulevards with terrific pride and light in our eyes

Twelve feet tall and staggering

Sick with joy with the angels there and light in our eyes

Brothers and sisters

Hope still waits in the wings

Like a bitter spinster

Impatient lonely and shivering

Waiting to build her glorious fires

It's because of our plans man

Our beautiful ridiculous plans

Let's launch them like careening jetplanes

Let's crash all our planes into the river

Let's build strange and radiant machines

At this jericho waiting to fall
