By my orders/It took a turn by Johnny CrimsonHighest peak attainable on foot
To crest these heights would be a crescendo of fluidity and grace
Tumbling awkwardly
Lopsided and listless
I'm afraid my humble King
Your crowns been broken for good
The men removed their armor
From head to foot to horse
To hell with formation, there will be nothing of this
No longer will you hear the clashing of swords,
the galloping of thy horse,
or the winds of war on the horizon
Satan had cracked deaths head
The rats ate the bodies till the bodies ate the rats
"O what a day for Ireland" cried ye
And the kind old king soaked the battlefields with blood no more
As the children stripped his clothes and sold them in the fields
A young man waited till night
He began eating the body of his master
whilst his lover watched
Had this been videotaped we might have real pop culture today
