Pack

The rumor was spreading through town

They were coming in numbers to tear this place down

To the ground

There they come in their twos and their threes

With their guns in the front so you can’t fail to see

Can’t stay now you, got to carry all you can take

For they’re on, they’re on, they’re on, they’re on the uptake

Don’t look to me you’ve got to carry your own weight

For they’re on, they’re on, they’re on, they’re on their way

So we’re standing in line with our pots and our pans

And the sink if you can

And the children in your one free hand

And many miles later

I’ve worn out my shoes

So the heals are all blistered and hardened and bruised

From the war

You’d better keep up

Can’t stay now you, got to carry all you can take

For they’re on, they’re on, they’re on, they’re on the uptake

Don’t look to me you’ve got to carry your own weight

For they’re on, they’re on, they’re on, they’re on their way

And I don’t mind the fighting

But all we’ve got are the rocks

But the sticks and the stones

But they don’t break the bones

When they hit

So quieten your voices

And stamp out your fires

We’ll be sleeping by day

And we’ll travel on that night

Keep up the good fight

Can’t stay now you, got to carry all you can take

For they’re on, they’re on, they’re on, they’re on the uptake

Don’t look to me you’ve got to carry your own weight

For they’re on, they’re on, they’re on, they’re on their way

Don’t look to me you’ve got to carry your own weight

For they’re on, they’re on, they’re on, they’re on their w
