L'Ame Immortelle - Jenseits der Schatten lyrics

I could tell the meaning of a word like serene

I got some ’o’ grades when I was sixteen

I can tell the difference between magarine and butter

I can say saskatchewan without starting to stutter

But I can’t understand why we let someone else rule our land

We’re cap in hand

I could get a broken jaw from being in a fight

I know it’s evening when day turns to night

I can understand why stranraer lie so lowly

They could save a lot of points by signing hibs goalie

But I can’t understand why we let someone else rule our land

We’re cap in hand

We fight - when they ask us

We boast - then we cower

We beg

For a piece of

Whats already ours

Once I thought I could make God a bribe

So I said I was in his lost tribe

Getting handouts can be so frustrating

Get in line son, there’s five million waiting

I can’t understand why you let someone else rule your land

You’re cap in hand.
