Celebrationonelasttime

Feel the rhythm rolling,rolling don't stop now, the bell is tolling for your father for your son, don't stop now you're almost done grab a shovel,write a letter dig a hole ,you're getting better keep the rhyme it's turning,turning don't stop now your world is burning close your empty socket eyes you can never see the prize go climb a tree and light a fire you must build a funeral pyre on a mountain,by a wall anywhere, but through it all let the beat keep pounding,pounding through your universe resounding tell a tale of some tomorrow you can do it! vanquish sorrow kiss the photo of the martyr it will make you so much smarter don't stop now the clock is ticking feel the hoof beats clicking,clicking they are coming for your treasure don't stop now no time to measure synchronize the seven sisters dancing daughters and their misters in a final grand salute to the children you recruit march them 'round the Maypole quickly some are dying, some are sickly keep the rhythm keep the rhyme celebration one last time
