Artist/Band: The Go-Betweens
Lyrics for Song: Five Words
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - The Go-Betweens



It starts with a birthstone

And ends with a tombstone

Cathedrals in London,

Cathedrals in Rome, all stone.



And I just say (what do you say?)

And I just say (what do you say?)

Bury them don't keep 'em.

And I just know (what do you know?)

And I just know (what do you know?)

Bury them don't keep 'em.



Praise to the vision

That pays for the angel.

Coins in communion

Ring like a halo.*



Lay me down

On my knees

By my bed

At night.



Lay me down

On my knees

By my bed

At night.



Hail to the generals

But hell to the public.

Bows for the bishop

And bones for believers.



chorus



Rap, rap, rap on the lid.

Rap, rap, rap on the lid.

Bury them don't keep 'em etc.
