ELEVENTH EARL OF MAR

Genesis
앨범 : Wind and Wuthering


The sun had been up for a couple of hours,

Covered the ground with a layer of gold.

Spirits were high and the raining had stopped,

The larder was low, But boy that wasn't all.

Eleventh Earl of Mar

Couldn't get them very far.

Daddy! Oh Daddy, You Promised.

Out on the road in the direction of Perth,

Backwards and forwards in a circle they went.

Found a city half open and ready to greet,

The conquering heroes, with blisters on their feet.

Eleventh Earl of Mar

Somehow got them all this far.

Daddy! You Promised, You Promised.

See the Stewart all dressed up

He's got eyes in the back of his head.

Who came in a cockleshell boat

That could only just float,

Couldn't even lift a sword.

Dressed too fine and smelling of wine.

Daddy you've got to go!

Here comes the bishop all dressed up

He's gonna bless you if you're ready to pay.

One wave of his funny old stick,

There's a band of light across your eyes.

Waited a week still they hadn't appeared,

That glorious timing that everyone feared.

So they're riding along on the crest of a wave,

They're headed for London, And that will be their grave.

Eleventh Earl of Mar

Well he couldn't get them down that far

Daddy! I'm waiting, I'm waiting

Time to go to bed now

Never seems too keen

To be a guest now

In a house of dreams

Flying from a hillside

Beckoning the trees

A sailboat's awning

Mimicking the breeze

I'm fighting gravity falling

My Daddy won't let them get me

A voice screams seems to be calling

The face turns features are burning.

Daddy, you've got to go!

See the fifteen going by,

Tell the Lairds and the Lords

They're running backwards today,

And once again you stand alone.

Bury your memories bury your friends,

Leave it alone for a year or two.

Till the stories go hazy and the legends come true,

Then do it again. Some Things never end.

Eleventh Earl of Mar

Won't be going very far.

You Promised, You Promised, You Promised.

DADDY!
