There's lions at the gate And I can hear them roar Hiding behind their dinner plates And begging us for more There's lions at the gate A nation cries to them Asking them for reasons And asking them again The holy Romans want a war Is this the life worth fighting for Your pawns have been replaced with bishops They'll take all that you can afford They'll take, and take, and take some more Then look at you and say "it's borrowed" There's lions at the gate And I heard that was a myth But even if that's true We still need more that this There's lions at the gate And I wish it wasn't true But they were put their for a reason That I really wish I knew The odds have been drawn and set It looks like we have lost the bet And gamblers all just say "It's business" They'll send their children out to die Lock the doors and run and hide Destroying cities out of pride There's lions at the gate Made of marble, stone, and brass There to scare away the beasts That they call the working class And the lions getting hungry They're ready to attack Take my hide and leather it's no skin off my back Eat, and drink, and sleep, and play While the children get your food The best years of their lives go by and they're looking up to you
