william weld in the 21st century - ted leo lyrics

Loading...

william weld sees the 20th century fading away in the night
the curtain fell on this old n-ble venture, he waits in the lane for his flight

doesn’t bend as he walks down the jetway, bag in hand
don’t pretend there won’t be profound regret when he lands

william felt he could save his country, he gave it away without a fight

william held to his quiet dignity, who wouldn’t think to admire
honor, love and the holy trinity, who wouldn’t think they’d inspire

but there’s a rend in the veil of the temple he can’t hide
and he can’t mend while they all dissemble what’s inside

under the spell of staid respectability, we’re getting near to the fire

and all the men who [?]
they hedge their bets and they are [?]
they apologized
and for what they bet

and they won’t turn around
they always let you down
and they won’t turn around
they always let you down
and they won’t turn around
they’re gonna let you down

men of breeding and men of sanity
men selling men out of time
men in need of a shaking of vanity
wander away from the crowd
