One by one they followed the sun
|
One by one until there where none
|
Two by two to their lovers they flew
|
Two by two into the foggy dew.
|
|
Three by three they danced on the sea
|
Four by four they danced on the shore
|
Five by five they tried to survive
|
Six by six they were playing with tricks.
|
|
How many paths did he try and fail
|
How many of their brothers and sisters linger in jail
|
How much poison did their inhale
|
How many black cats crossed their trail.
|
|
Seven by seven they head for heaven
|
Eight by eight their got to the gate
|
Nine by nine they drank the wine
|
Ten by ten they drank it again.
|
|
How many tomorrows have they given away
|
How many compared to yesterday
|
How many more without any reward
|
How many more can they afford.
|
|
Two by two they step into the ark
|
Two by two they step in the dark
|
Three by three they're turning the key
|
Four by four they turn it some more.
|
|
One by one they followed the sun
|
Two by two to another rendezvous
|
Three by three don't tread on me
|
Four by four they're loosing the war.
|
|
Five by five can't stay alive......
