Gone Unsung Lyrics - Clutch

If knee-deep in catnip 

At the old icebox 

I recommend you whistle 

And give the box three knocks 

Should you be so lucky 

To hear whisperin' 

It is an invitation 

For you to join in 

Let us go leaping 

In 3-measure time 

Dressed up as asses 

And drunk to the nines 

Swing from the branches, shouting those songs 

Gone unsung for far too long 

If surrounded by toadstools 

In the old green glen 

I'm afraid there is little 

That I can recommend 

Save all of your courage 

And the sincere prayer 

And where you go a-treadin' 

Take the utmost care 

Let us go leaping 

In 3-measure time 

Dressed up as asses 

And drunk to the nines 

Swing from the rafters, shouting those songs 

Gone unsung for far too long 

Let us go leaping 

In 3-measure time 

Dressed up as asses 

And drunk to the nines 

Swing from the branches, shouting those songs 

Gone unsung for far too long 

Sound of rushing water yon... 

Nine Men's Morris in the sand 

But the player's gone 

Drink to the dead 

All you still alive 

We shall join them in good time 

Should you go crossing that silvery brook 

It's best to leap before you look
