Gruesome Castle - The Wake

There’s a drawbridge in the distance

That’s where my goal lies

If I slay the wretches

And the stretchers in my path

Arise, arise, keep up appearances

Arise, arise, keep up appearances

I only know that

I was born in prison

Without a penny to my name

When I first came to this country

Had to learn to know my place

Here is Gruesome Castle

Leaning on Filth Hill

Carpets covered with ash

And all your tables bare

Arise, arise, keep up appearances

Arise, arise, keep up appearances

(I can show you where the leads to)

Arise, arise, keep up appearances

Arise, arise, keep up appearances
