Enter The Haggis - The Litter And The Leaves lyrics

rate me

Another link in the chain getting rusty breaking

Down in the gutter with a smile

It's another case of finding your place

Another number showing what it's made of

But the sun sweeps the shadows from the concrete

Morning comes and it's another day

But the streets have voices, the walls have ears

And they're never gonna go away

On our feet is where we're gonna land

(You can find me in the gutter)

The gutter is the place where we will make our stand

And with a smile on my face and a bottle in my hand

You can find me in the gutter in the morning

Here with the litter and the leaves we tremble

Here's where our memories were made

All the real life starts in the gutters and the bars

Long after the light of day has faded

Cause we just don't know how to take it we feel

Cheated and excited and afraid

As they all shake hands and draw their lines in the sand

And forget about the mess they've made

On our feet is where we're gonna land

Placing the blame on the chain of command

And with a smile on my face and a bottle in my hand

You'll find me in the gutter in the morning

They have been sighted, they have been indicted

We have ignited, to break until they bend

We will deny them, this will be our anthem

We will defy them, til the bitter end

Words, witnesses heard

We know it's not that simple

Their lies open our eyes

Force us to rise irate

The world isn't this small

We know it's not that simple

And the gutters give birth and we're filling the street

And the city will shake with the sound of our feet

And we'll sing our gutter anthem til the day we die

Life goes on, the city fades away

You can't see the fireworks by the light of day

We're not on the payroll, we're just getting by

But we'll sing our gutter anthem till we die, die, die

We'll sing our gutter anthem till we die
