Chumbawamba - Jacob's Ladder lyrics

Your rating:


Jacob's ladder



Like rusty old nails

At the bottom of the sea

Telling no tales

For the good of the Admiralty

You jump when you're told to

Through the open door

And the King of Norway

He's the man you all died for



(Chorus)

On this Jacob's Ladder

The only way up is down

Three days in the water

Watching all the secrets drown

Jacob's Ladder



"And they sent him to the wars to be slain, to be slain

And they sent him to the wars to be slain"(Repeats)



A thousand lifetimes

Left standing at the docks

In the bar down in Whitehall

They're sure the boat won't rock

In a file marked 'Secret'

In a drawer kept closed

Nobody wonders

Because nobody knows



(Chorus)

About this Jacob's Ladder

The only way up is down

Three days in the water

Watching all the secrets drown

Jacob's Ladder



"And they sent him to the wars to be slain, to be slain

And they sent him to the wars to be slain"(Repeats)



(Chorus)

On this Jacob's Ladder

The only way up is down

Three days in the water

Watching all the secrets drown(Repeats)

Jacob's Ladder



O Bulldog Leader, sooner or later we'll dig up the body and try your cadaver 

(Repeats)
