Over the Rise

"This battle fares like to the morning's war

When dying clouds contend with growing light

What time the shepherd, blowing of his nails

Can neither call it perfect day nor night"



"Oh yes, indeed, we've got to keep up with the Joneses"



But the moonlight was a good night

To socialise

No one was uptight, we were alright

Over the rise



Now far you bet me that you would let me

If you were surprised

And now you've met me, you won't forget me

Over the rise



Over the rise

Over the rise

And spending long long life

Over the rise



If were loved dear, it could be nice here

And the same applies

To you dear in your third year

Over the rise



If you're right here and you can't tell

It's quite a disguise

But you adapted with your dust pan

Over the rise



Over the rise

Over the rise

And spending long long life

Over the rise



Over the rise

Over the rise

And spending long long life

Over the rise



Over the rise

Over the rise

And spending long long life

Over the rise



Over the rise

And spending long long life

Over the rise

And spending long long life

Over the rise
