Savages Lyrics

	The flame in your eye could burn the world if it were to escape
	And the love in your heart is the kind of love they write epic verse about
	And darlin’ you know,
	You know that you’re better than this
	Darlin’ you know,
	You know you are better than this
	But we are ash and we are books
	Coffee-stained and overlooked
	We are ornamental swords
	Forged for the peace after the war
	And the world has no need
	of the songs than we sang
	We are savages, you and I, and we will
	Hang, hang, hang.
	The tear on your cheek will fall ignored by the suckers to fake romance
	And the hope in your heart will be dashed on the shore of this deadly island
	Darling you know
	That there’s no place for us
	We’ll build and we’ll sweat
	But there’s no place for us
	No Ithaca no home
	We are Greeks in the age of Rome
	With no right to criticise
	The happily dull, to Grecian eyes
	And the world has no need
	of the songs that we sang
	We are savages, you and I, and we will
	Hang, hang, hang.
	The sweat on your brow shall be disdained, shunned and deodorized
	And the will of your heart shall spoil in the heat of a new world
	And darlin you know
	You know we’re better unheard
	Darlin you know
	You know we’re better unserved
	The Brave new futures we have seen
	Filled with beautiful machines
	Greener pastures, clearer skies
	And not one such as you or I
	As the dust shall settle sweetly
	on the songs that we sang
	We are savages you and I,
	And we will Hang, hang, hang
	Hang, Hang, Hang.

	The flame in your eye could burn the world if it were to escape
	And the love in your heart is the kind of love they write epic verse about
	And darlin' you know,
	You know that you' re better than this
	Darlin' you know,
	You know you are better than this
	But we are ash and we are books
	Coffeestained and overlooked
	We are ornamental swords
	Forged for the peace after the war
	And the world has no need
	of the songs than we sang
	We are savages, you and I, and we will
	Hang, hang, hang.
	The tear on your cheek will fall ignored by the suckers to fake romance
	And the hope in your heart will be dashed on the shore of this deadly island
	Darling you know
	That there' s no place for us
	We' ll build and we' ll sweat
	But there' s no place for us
	No Ithaca no home
	We are Greeks in the age of Rome
	With no right to criticise
	The happily dull, to Grecian eyes
	And the world has no need
	of the songs that we sang
	We are savages, you and I, and we will
	Hang, hang, hang.
	The sweat on your brow shall be disdained, shunned and deodorized
	And the will of your heart shall spoil in the heat of a new world
	And darlin you know
	You know we' re better unheard
	Darlin you know
	You know we' re better unserved
	The Brave new futures we have seen
	Filled with beautiful machines
	Greener pastures, clearer skies
	And not one such as you or I
	As the dust shall settle sweetly
	on the songs that we sang
	We are savages you and I,
	And we will Hang, hang, hang
	Hang, Hang, Hang.
