lirik lagu the old dance – oysterband
[verse 1]
oy, said god, listen to me
keep your hands off the apple tree
eve and adam wondered why
made some cider and gave it a try
god came back and he made a row
go and toil by the sweat of your brow
the snake said the h*ll with the daily bread
he showed them how to do the latest dance instead
[chorus]
and it’s the old dance, and a crooked dance too
step outside the law
play the tune on your d*mned old fiddle
it’ll burn you up like straw
[verse 2]
god rolled up in a big black car
took a drag on a fat cigar
brеak the law and you pay the price
out you go from paradisе
he stuck a sign on every tree
this is private property
the snake said property is theft
never mind, there’s always one thing left
[chorus]
and that’s the old dance, and a crooked dance too
step outside the law
play the tune on your d*mned old fiddle
it’ll burn you up like straw
[instrumental break]
[chorus]
oh woah, it’s the old dance, and a crooked dance too
such a crooked dance too
step outside the law
play the tune on your d*mned old fiddle
it’ll burn you up (burn you up) like straw
[verse 3]
god sends thunder, god sends hail
chills and spills and bills in the mail
plagues on the sly and the innocent
frogs and boils and the government
take your partners in despite
try to dance away the night
(with your hands all round) with your hands all round
what’ll we do when the sky falls down?
[chorus]
we’ll do the old dance, and a crooked dance too
step outside the law
play the tune on your d*mned old fiddle
it’ll burn you up like straw
we’ll do the old dance
step outside the law
play the tune on your d*mned old fiddle
it’ll burn you up like straw
[fiddle solo]
[outro]
oh woah, we’ll do the old dance, and a crooked dance too
step outside the law
play the tune on your d*mned old fiddle
it’ll burn you up
it’ll burn you up
it’ll burn you up
it’ll burn you up
it’ll burn you up, burn you up
it’ll burn you up, burn you up
it’ll burn you up, burn you up
it’ll burn you up like straw
