Deathwork Song

Let's sing a song for all the workmen

Working on the carpark down by here

Wrecking through the tombstones and the granite

Cutting through the bone here

Sweeping all the dust here

Crunching all the dirt down

Lifting it up and putting it down

For once the sun beats down so warmly

As the earthmovers come on so strong

Move some hard old century closer

Move it from the earth

Put it on the truck

Drive the truck away

Lift it all up and put it all down

And now the site stands still and silent

As the men come circling around

To see the bag left in the ground here

Must have been a time ago

Can't have been that old

Must have been so lonely

So lift up and set it down

I can see my father in his place now

It's many years away from here

Lying back in sleep that's short and deep

I think he's a good man

I feel his good hands

They seemed so soft then

When they were setting us up and putting us down
