lyrics

Lent

Trundle over to the cathedral ref
Past Thomas Thetcher, pipped by weazels
Welcomed by my robin, anointed with ash;
meet up with the old crowd, coughs and sneezes

Talk about movies, sport and scandals,
dodgy eyes, ears, bladders and knees;
Holidays abroad, restaurants and art
Who will care for us in our hour of need

Old men clinging to the ruins of youth
rich memories, legacies from a golden time
Abandoned pride and dreams of greatness
No longer scared to face the final sunset

One by one we fade away
our wisdom unwelcome with the hubris of youth
our wealth squandered, our good names slandered,
the battalions of ignorance march over our dead
