Revenge (Can Be so Sweet) - Strawbs

Cousins-Cronk

A confluence of rivers once flowed out to the sea

Where forests grew abundant and nature’s gifts were free

Man built his mighty temples and prayed at his own feet

But the desert sands were shifting, revenge can be so sweet

We shall all rise up

March to the beat

We shall all rise up

Revenge can be so sweet

Beneath the Tower of Babel crowds began to form

Gathering in defiance in the forefront of the storm

Machinery breathed fire melting with the heat

Flames lit up the night sky, revenge can be so sweet

The culture of possession is both perilous and plain

Man shows no inhibition in the conquests that remain

Those who breed corruption should sleep out in the street

Life is meant for living, revenge can be so sweet

We shall all rise up

March to the beat

We shall all rise up

Revenge can be so sweet
