Kneel to the Cross Lyrics

Intro (repeat 8 times):
Sumer is icumen in - Arise! Arise!
Sumer is icumen in - Arise! Arise!
Verse:
Give us our bread and bury our dead
And kneel to the cross on the wall
Whether burnt at the stake or drunk at the wake
Just kneel to the cross on the wall
We've original sin, but we might just get in
If we beg to the cross on the wall
It's love your neighbours and rattle your sabre
Just kneel to that cross on the wall.
Chorus:
See the roof fall
Hear the bells crash
As flesh and bone
Turn to ash
Tried to conquer the sun
With a Christian frost
The corpses' stench
Beneath the cross
Verse:
Give them gold and they'll save your soul
And kneel to the cross on the wall
And hail to the boss of the great unwashed
And kneel to the cross on the wall
They wail and weep, the march of the sheep
As they go to the cross on the wall
And it's ever so wrong to dare to be strong
So kneel to the cross on the wall
Chorus:
See the roof fall
Hear the bells crash
As flesh and bone
Turn to ash
Tried to conquer the sun
With a Christian frost
The corpses' stench
Beneath the cross
Outro:
It's ever so wrong to dare to be strong
It's ever so wrong to dare to be strong
But Sumer is icumen in - Arise! Arise! x4
But Sumer is icumen in - Arise! - Arise!
