Ed Harcourt - Parliament Of Rooks lyrics

rate me

Fold my clothes speedly

Set the table slowly

Sweep the floor gently

The clock is ticking softly

[Prechorus]

They are here in the morning

There in the evening

Wondering when it's time

The quire of marauders

Highest pecking order

No point in trying to hide

[Chorus]

It's just a parliament of rooks

Sitting on the fence

Aiming for the world

It's just a parliament of rooks

Oh, and they're ready to move from this world to the next one

Ready to move from this world to the next world

Summon us all to the world if the seven suns

A parliament of rooks will move you up!

Looking at your body

She's to weak and umburdened

Don't know where I'm going

Took me up to Heaven

[Prechorus]

[Chorus]

Here they come!

Here they come!
