The Iron Heel
I said, "when I'm grown
I wanna be a canary
Covered in coal"
You said, "don't joke"
I see that no one is laughing
Well, no one I know,
But somewhere someone
Is laughing all the way to the bank
Let go the ghost
Do what you can
They make you kill it again, kill it again
Do what you must
To bring this to an end
They made you kill it again, kill it again
As they're laughing all the way to the bank
They natter and discuss
In agonizing detail
This year's ephemera
A chalice spills on us
And as all of our hands
They're dry and cupped
Somewhere someone
Is laughing all the way to the bank
Let go the ghost
Do what you can
They make you kill it again, kill it again
Do what you must
To bring this to an end
They made you kill it again, kill it again
As they're laughing all the way to the bank
Let go the ghost
Do what you can
They make you kill it again, kill it again
Do what you must
To bring this to an end
They make you kill it again, kill it again
Let go the ghost
Do what you can
They make you kill it again, kill it again
Do what you must
To bring this to an end
They made you kill it again, kill it again
Kill it again, kill it again
Kill it again, kill it again
Kill it again, kill it again, kill it again
I wanna be a canary
Covered in coal"
You said, "don't joke"
I see that no one is laughing
Well, no one I know,
But somewhere someone
Is laughing all the way to the bank
Let go the ghost
Do what you can
They make you kill it again, kill it again
Do what you must
To bring this to an end
They made you kill it again, kill it again
As they're laughing all the way to the bank
They natter and discuss
In agonizing detail
This year's ephemera
A chalice spills on us
And as all of our hands
They're dry and cupped
Somewhere someone
Is laughing all the way to the bank
Let go the ghost
Do what you can
They make you kill it again, kill it again
Do what you must
To bring this to an end
They made you kill it again, kill it again
As they're laughing all the way to the bank
Let go the ghost
Do what you can
They make you kill it again, kill it again
Do what you must
To bring this to an end
They make you kill it again, kill it again
Let go the ghost
Do what you can
They make you kill it again, kill it again
Do what you must
To bring this to an end
They made you kill it again, kill it again
Kill it again, kill it again
Kill it again, kill it again
Kill it again, kill it again, kill it again
