Tower Three Lyrics - Legendary Pink Dots

The echo of a thousand marching boots hammers on the air. They're 

singing anthems, chanting oaths and whistle as Salome lifts her skirt 

because they're 'real' men and they're healthy, happy... own the 

place. They raise hell when they're sober, wrestle tigers when 

they're drunk. In their living rooms a picture of the queen nestles 

in between Miss August and a placard saying HOME IS WHERE THE HEART 

IS. (Keep it pure, keep it white. Keep it free of undesirables 

because freedom is so valuable and getting scarcer.). Fight! So they 

march. Smashing windows, splashing slogans, pushing petrol bombs 

through doors 'til a uniform appears. Gently whisper in the ear of 

the leader. "That's against the law but we'll ignore it this time. 

Peace Krime's got to be official!" 

Keep it clean. Keep it quiet. In a lonely moor the digger's working, 

bigger holes hold more... And the patriots stay in as convoys rattle 

down the street. No-one hears the weeping, no-one listens for the 

cracks at dawn. The shovelling goes on and on and on. But the 

patriots aren't frightened cos they heard it on T.V. that a Golden Age 

lies 'round the corner. Any day now...
