Listen children to a story, |
| [00:20.26] |
That was written long ago. |
| [00:23.03] |
About a kingdom on a mountain, |
| [00:25.72] |
And the valley folk below. |
| [00:28.42] |
On the mountain was a treasure, |
| [00:31.35] |
Buried deep beneath a stone, |
| [00:34.43] |
And the valley people swore, |
| [00:37.09] |
They'd have it for they're very own. |
| [00:42.03] |
Go ahead and hate your neighbor, |
| [00:44.78] |
Go ahead and cheat a friend. |
| [00:47.67] |
Do it in the name of heaven, |
| [00:50.75] |
(You can) justify it in the end. |
| [00:53.17] |
There won't be any trumpets blowin' |
| [00:55.94] |
Come the judgement day. |
| [00:58.72] |
On the bloody morning after, |
| [01:04.21] |
One tin soldier rides away. |
| [01:11.64] |
So the people of the valley, |
| [01:14.34] |
Sent a message up the hill. |
| [01:17.23] |
Asking for the buried treasure, |
| [01:20.11] |
Tons of gold for which they'd kill. |
| [01:22.89] |
Came an answer, from the kingdom, |
| [01:25.54] |
“With our brothers, we will share, “ |
| [01:28.57] |
All the secrets of our mountain, |
| [01:30.64] |
All the riches buried there.” |
| [01:39.22] |
Now the valley cried with anger, |
| [01:41.93] |
“Mount your horses, “ |
| [01:43.71] |
Draw your sword” |
| [01:44.84] |
And they killed the mountain people, |
| [01:47.63] |
So they won their just reward. |
| [01:50.51] |
Now they stood beside the treasure |
| [01:53.24] |
On the mountain dark and red, |
| [01:56.10] |
Turned the stone and looked beneath it, |
| [01:59.69] |
“Peace on earth” “ |
| [02:01.41] |
Was all it said. |
| [02:05.44] |
Go ahead and hate your neighbor, |
| [02:08.25] |
Go ahead and cheat a friend. |
| [02:11.04] |
Do it in the name of heaven, |
| [02:13.47] |
(You can) justify it in the end. |
| [02:16.70] |
There won't be any trumpets blowin' |
| [02:19.03] |
Come the judgement day. |
| [02:22.07] |
On the bloody morning after, |
| [02:27.42] |
One tin soldier rides away. |
| [02:35.16] |
Go ahead and hate your neighbor, |
| [02:37.83] |
Go ahead and cheat a friend. |
| [02:40.39] |
Do it in the name of heaven, |
| [02:43.44] |
(You can) justify it in the end. |
| [02:46.36] |
There won't be any trumpets blowin' |
| [02:48.76] |
Come the judgement day. |
| [02:51.76] |
On the bloody morning after, |
| [02:57.18] |
One tin soldier rides away. |
