Paroles de Batten Down The Hatches

Wake from a memory Old as a century Evening beckons With it's graces Make for the rendezvous Walk like I'm bulletproof Start the clock! Code words and cagey looks Pills in a pocketbook Keep me rollin' I say good bye Cab to the ketahaus Big girls in bigger gowns Stale perfume But I gotta put up with this button up skin Held together with thread so fat it looks thin In the light of a hundred thousand burning men There's no wonder the booze has a taste of death's scent Batten down the hatches and lock away your pride If you're hoping to survive Woah! Catastrophe is calling and we've reserved your seats, To witness your defeat Yeah! Ride into the hornets' nest Pleased I'm a welcome guest Yes I'm drinking You do the killing Chilled? I should hope as much Always a helpful touch Inspires the tongue Then I follow her out of this disco of death And she's taking my hand as she claws off her dress Now she opens the cell where her hostage lays bound... Batten down the hatches and lock away your pride If you're hoping to survive Woah! Catastrophe is calling and we've reserved your seats, To witness your defeat Yeah! It only hits you when you turn around Your face deflating like a circus clown You never thought your sins would, Come back to you Well it's well overdue You try to fight but it's too late Your eyes plead save me from this Judgement Batten down the hatches and lock away your pride If you're hoping to survive Woah! Catastrophe is calling and we've reserved your seats, To witness your defeat Batten down the hatches and lock away your pride If you're hoping to survive Batten down those hatches tight If you're hoping to survive Batten You must be batten. It's time to batten Batten... ...Down Batten down, Those hatches tight! Batten down! Batten down those hatches, And lock away your pride!
