Here Come The Romans Cherry Ghost

World without sound

cant you keep the noise down

Else you gonna make the baby cry



Over split blood

heavens anyone would

think you had an axe to grind



Baby look out here come the Romans

with their steely gaze theyre climbing on your sofa

cheap veneers and a swinging brik for a heart

forked tongues same song were tired and we wanna go

home



Hide the swag bag

quick before the tongues wag

cross your heart and claim a noble cause



Quote the scriptures

paint your pretty pictures

fleece them with your filthy paws



Baby look out here come the Romans

with their steely gaze theyre climbing on your sofa

cheap veneers and a swinging brik for a heart

forked tongues same song were tired and we wanna go

home



Bad news spread fast and theyre spreading,

theyre spreading like a chip pan fire

we must confess

we aint progressed

since Elvis has left the building a mess



World without sound

cant you keep the noise down

Else you gonna make the baby cry



Over split blood

heavens anyone would

think you had an axe to grind



Baby look out here come the Romans

with their steely gaze theyre climbing on your sofa

cheap veneers and a swinging brik for a heart

forked tongues same song were tired and we wanna go

home
