The Tyburn Lads.
(The last moments/regrets of one facing the drop at Tyburn)
I'm dancing on the edge I'm tortured by your fingers,
Of the many lives I've sold some of them still linger,
We celebrate the fools banality is king here,
The fatuous still rule while the rest of us just bleed.
As dawn breaks Ice into my tears it's all the same,
As the Tyburn Lads sing on..
I see my little girl standing tall for her mother,
With a future black as coal she'll drown in gin like the others,
I've swum against the tide and cursed all gods and lawyers,
The setting sun it lies there is no chance of spring.
As dawn breaks ice into my tears it's all the same,
As the Tyburn Lads sing on..
I could have been a man I could have been a sailor,
I could have been a soldier-boy dying for the King,
I could have been a miner I could have been a father,
Hold my little boys hand I could have been a man.
We're dancing on this edge we're tortured by your fingers,
Will I take a glass instead a love of wine still lingers,
Is it very different now the poverty we sift through,
While the money boys escape the killing and the lies.
As dawn breaks ice into my tears it's all the same,
As the Tyburn Lads sing on..
I could have been a god changing all the worlds,
I could have been a rich man buy you pretty pearls,
I could have been a drunkard I could have been a murderer,
Instead I'm dancing here when I could have been a man.
I just thought I'd try my hand at making coin for you and the lad,
I just thought the world would give us a chance?
