The Stand Lyrics by Alarm, The

The Stand Lyrics

    Oh i have been out searching with the black book in my hand
    And i've looked between the lines that lie on the pages that i tread
    I met the walking dude,religious, in his wom down cowboy boots
    He walked liked no man on earth
    I swear he had no name (had no name)
    I swear he had no name

    Come on down & meet your maker
    Come on down & make the stand
    Come on down, come on down,
    Come on down & make the stand.

    As i crawled beneath the searchlights
    Looking through the floorboards of this life
    I met doctor strangeloves cousin
    He bore the marks of time
    "hey! trashcan where you going boy
    Your eyes are feet apart
    Is that the end you're carrying shall i play the funeral march" (play the march)
    "play the funeral march"

    Come on down & meet your maker
    Come on down & make the stand
    Come on down, come on down,
    Come on down & we'll make the stand.

    Come on down & meet your maker
    Come on down & make the stand
    Come on down, come on down,
    Come on down, we'll make the stand.

    When i looked out the window
    On the hardship that had struck i saw the seven phials open
    The plague claimed man and son
    Four men at a grave in silence with hats bowed down in grace
    A simple wooden cross,
    It had no epitaph engraved (it had no)
    It had no epitaph engraved.

    Come on down & meet your maker
    Come on down & make the stand
    Come on down, come on down,
    Come on and make the stand

    Come on down & meet your maker
    Come on down & make the stand
    Come on down, come on down,
    Come on down, & we'll make the stand.
