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
