Current 93 - Kneel To The Cross lyrics

Sumer is icumen in Arise! Arise Give us our bread and bury our dead And kneel to the cross on the wall Whether burnt at the stake or drunk at the wake Just kneel to the cross on the wall We've original sin, but we might just get in If we beg to the cross on the wall It's love your neighbours and rattle your sabre Just kneel to that cross on the wall See the roof fall, hear the bells crash As flesh and bone turn to ash Tried to conquer the sun with a Christian frost The corpses' stench beneath the cross Give them gold and they'll save your soul And kneel to the cross on the wall Hail to the boss of the great unwashed And kneel to the cross on the wall They wail and weep, the march of the sheep As they go to the cross on the wall And it's ever so wrong to dare to be strong So kneel to the cross on the wall
