The Litter And The Leaves Lyrics - Enter The Haggis

Another link in the chain getting rusty breaking 

Down in the gutter with a smile 

It's another case of finding your place 

Another number showing what he's made of 

The sun sweeps the shadows from the concrete 

Morning comes and it's another day 

But the streets have voices, the walls have ears 

And they're never gonna go away 

On our feet is where we're gonna land 

(You can find me in the gutter!) 

The gutter is the place where we will make our stand and 

With a smile on my face and a bottle in my hand 

You'll find me in the gutter in the morning 

And it's here with the litter and the leaves we tremble 

Here's where our memories are made 

Oh the real life starts in the gutters and the bars 

Long after the light of day has faded 

Cause we just don't know how to take it we feel 

Cheated and excited and afraid 

Well they all shake hands and draw their lines in the sand 

And forget about the mess they've made 

On our feet is where we're gonna land 

(You can find me in the gutter!) 

Placing the blame on the chain of command 

With a smile on my face and a bottle in my hand 

You'll find me in the gutter in the morning 

With a smile on my face and a bottle in my hand 

You'll find me in the gutter in the morning 

They have been sighted, they have been indicted 

And we've been ignited to break until they bend 

We will deny them, this will be our anthem 

We will defy them, till the bitter end 

Words, witnesses heard 

We know it's not that simple 

Your lies open our eyes 

Force us to rise irate 

The world isn't this small 

We know it's not that simple 

And the gutters give birth, and we're filling the streets 

And the city will shake with the sound of feet 

...And we'll sing our gutter anthem till the day we die! 

Life goes on, the city fades away 

You can't see the fireworks by the light of day 

We're not on the payroll, we're just getting buy 

But we'll sing our gutter anthems till we die, die, die 

We'll sing our gutter anthems till we die
