They Will Dig It

from Set Upon by Satellites by The Halcyon Brothers

/

lyrics

If there’s rum, they will dig it
Opium, they will dig it
Kettledrums, they will dig it
If they’re numb

If there’s rum, they will dig it
Opium, they will dig it
Kettledrums, they will dig it
If they’re numb

A love in a punt is a very weak beer
A love letter is a bill of exchange
A loved-up, love truck of love-weed
Is just a very, very, very, very good thing.

Bittersweet eulogies
Banquets on submarines
Tell a friend
Teleport
Telephone and ask for hope
Tell of all your long last years
Due to your lack of grace
Due to your lack of grace
Due to your lack of grace
Due to your lack of grace

Under a snake is morally low
A crisp criss-cross to disable the blows
A champagne glass to the Chancellor’s past
The purse-string aircraft, aircraft, aircraft
Aircraft in plain view

Bittersweet eulogies
Banquets on submarines
Tell a friend
Teleport
Telephone and ask for hope
Tell of all your long last years
Due to your lack of grace
Due to your lack of grace
Due to your lack of grace
Due to your lack of grace

If there’s rum, they will dig it
Opium, they will dig it
Kettledrums, they will dig it
If they’re numb

If there’s rum, they will dig it
Opium, they will dig it
Kettledrums, they will dig it
If they’re numb

about

The Halcyon Brothers Minneapolis, Minnesota

Halcyon is a poetic name for a Kingfisher. It is said that the floating nest of the Halcyon brings calm to the cruel sea. The Halcyon Brothers decorate the weight of the world in a charming and medicated disguise. The sound embraces with a clinched smile, and then stumbles and occasionally falls only to somehow prop itself back up for another round. ... more
