lyrics

Easy work, no thought involved;
fly the flag and flay who doesn’t cheer.
Stood beside, it’s any other job,
but take three paces back and the principle is clear;
if you’re scared already, sleep tight and rest assured
there’s not much else to fear.

The sober drum keeps my hands in time,
the chauvinistic chants remind me who I am.
So drone along; no one here will criticise if every
voice is flat and no one can remember how the
tune used to go.
Don’t waste time trying to find your own refrain.
Drown out the stir of what could be your leitmotif
by joining in the universal strain.

More than glad to yield to any tide,
and any ship will do as long as it’s been blessed.
I don’t care which coast we crawl toward
as long as I can dance to my request.
