Listen children to a story, |
| [00:27.16] |
That was written long ago. |
| [00:29.64] |
About a kingdom on a mountain, |
| [00:32.22] |
And the valley folk below. |
| [00:36.45] |
On the mountain was a treasure, |
| [00:38.75] |
Buried deep beneath a stone, |
| [00:41.09] |
And the valley people swore, |
| [00:43.37] |
They'd have it for they're very own. |
| [00:48.13] |
Go ahead and hate your neighbor, |
| [00:50.19] |
Go ahead and cheat a friend. |
| [00:52.71] |
Do it in the name of heaven, |
| [00:54.93] |
(You can) justify it in the end. |
| [00:57.48] |
There won't be any trumpets blowin' |
| [00:59.81] |
Come the judgement day. |
| [01:01.86] |
On the bloody morning after, |
| [01:06.61] |
One tin soldier rides away. |
| [01:15.82] |
So the people of the valley, |
| [01:18.01] |
Sent a message up the hill. |
| [01:20.43] |
Asking for the buried treasure, |
| [01:22.84] |
Tons of gold for which they'd kill. |
| [01:27.28] |
Came an answer, from the kingdom, |
| [01:29.43] |
“With our brothers, we will share, |
| [01:31.76] |
All the secrets of our mountain, |
| [01:34.18] |
All the riches buried there.” |
| [01:38.65] |
Go ahead and hate your neighbor, |
| [01:40.76] |
Go ahead and cheat a friend. |
| [01:43.17] |
Do it in the name of heaven, |
| [01:45.22] |
(You can) justify it in the end. |
| [01:47.93] |
There won't be any trumpets blowin' |
| [01:50.03] |
Come the judgement day. |
| [01:52.13] |
On the bloody morning after, |
| [01:56.97] |
One tin soldier rides away. |
| [02:06.14] |
Now the valley cried with anger, |
| [02:08.28] |
“Mount your horses, |
| [02:09.54] |
Draw your sword” |
| [02:10.66] |
And they killed the mountain people, |
| [02:12.79] |
So they gain their just reward. |
| [02:17.04] |
Now they stood beside the treasure |
| [02:19.35] |
On the mountain dark and red, |
| [02:21.76] |
Turned the stone and looked beneath it, |
| [02:24.10] |
“Peace on earth” “ |
| [02:25.39] |
Was all it said. |
| [02:28.27] |
Go ahead and hate your neighbor, |
| [02:30.66] |
Go ahead and cheat a friend. |
| [02:33.13] |
Do it in the name of heaven, |
| [02:35.23] |
(You can) justify it in the end. |
| [02:37.67] |
There won't be any trumpets blowin |
| [02:39.84] |
Come the judgement day. |
| [02:41.76] |
On the bloody morning after, |
| [02:46.76] |
One tin soldier rides away. |
