lyrics

So long, farewell
You’ve made it, passed your test
Nothing left to offer me
So I offer all the best
Some say this ship is sinking
Perhaps it ran aground
Keep kicking up above the waves
And one day you’ll be found

Maybe I’ve mistaken this
For a poorly thought-of scheme
And my heart, my soul, my character
Well it wasn’t really me
I got my father’s devilment
And my mother’s foolish pride
You’ll never see me coming
There’s no chance to run and hide

Can’t keep the crowd from forming
Make it in the end
Link your arms in honour, lads
Peak forwards, we’ll defend
Can’t keep the crowd from forming
Make it in the end
Link your arms in honour
We’ll defend

I’ve half a mind to end this
If given Arthur mind
Put your years of wreck and hope
And that anger to one side

But we’ll get them in the paddock
Swipe their papers, find the loot
You better have your wits about
Or it’s our necks in the noose
I’ll save my father’s devilment
And my mother’s foolish pride
I’ll let you know I’m coming
Give you choices, thought and time

Can’t keep the crowd from forming
Make it in the end
Link your arms in honour, lads
Peak forwards, we’ll defend
Can’t keep the crowd from forming
Make it in the end
Link your arms in honour
We’ll defend

All that rage and the Grace keeps coming
All that rage and the Grace keeps
All that rage and the Grace keeps coming
Pull the reigns in, pull the reigns in

Can’t keep the crowd from forming
Make it in the end
Link your arms in honour, lads
Peak forwards, we’ll defend

Can’t keep the crowd from forming
Make it in the end
Link your arms in honour, lads
Peak forwards, we’ll defend
Can’t keep the crowd from forming
Make it in the end
Link your arms in honour
We’ll defend
