Rook Lyrics

    Rook, rook read from your book
    Who murders who and where is the treasure hid?
    Crow, crow spill all you know
    Is that my name on the bell?
    Rook, rook gaze in the brook
    If there's a secret can i be part of it?
    Crow, crow before i'll let go, say is that my name on the bell?
    Soar up high, see the semaphore from the washing lines
    Break the code of the whispering chimneys and traffic signs
    Where's the message that's written under the base of clouds?
    Plans eternal, i know you know, so don't blurt out loud
    Rook, rook by hook or by crook
    I'll make you tell me what this whole thing's about!
    Crow, crow why can't you show
    If that's my name on the bell?
    On the wings of night, i fly too, above field and stream
    My head bursting with knowledge 'till i wake from the dream
    If i die and i find that i had a soul inside
    Promise me that you'll take it up on its final ride
    Rook, rook gaze in the brook
    If there's a secret can i be part of it?
    Crow, crow before i'll let go, say is that my name on the bell?
    Is that my name on the bell?
