[RINGMASTER]
|
The echoes never fade from the fusillade
|
Lafayette fired upon
|
An unarmed crowd, six thousand strong
|
The fragile ship of State
|
Sinks beneath the waves
|
The crashing sea of blood
|
Drowns out the sound of the parade
|
The tidied up the Camps du Mars
|
They piled up the dead
|
The dead whose only crime had been
|
To dream of freedom
|
The dead who'd never get to see
|
The King would be restored instead
|
