Lyrics

[00:01.19] High Ideals
[00:08.25] Build a Rocket Boys
[00:13.50]
[01:21.12] There's a ladder tear in my high ideals
[01:26.37]
[01:31.49] Like I took a chair on the battlefield
[01:36.74]
[01:42.34] And any noble friend that was burning in my chest
[01:49.84]
[01:51.59] Is acid in my belly at the very best
[01:57.46]
[02:03.53] There's a bayonnette in my family things
[02:08.97]
[02:13.40] It was made in the USA to defend the King
[02:19.66]
[02:23.41] With all the sinew, the thirst
[02:27.34]
[02:28.52] And all the bones that splintered
[02:32.71] Passed from hand to hand with the wedding rings
[02:39.77]
[02:45.52] Oh, settle down little heart of mine
[02:52.92]
[02:56.04] Oh, settle down, you do double time
[03:03.43]
[03:06.31] You're so far away but she's right here by your side
[03:16.07]
[03:17.33] Oh, settle down little heart of mine, ooh
[03:30.26]
[03:58.97]
