By the dried-up stream
We slit our throats and dreamed
Of when the buildings burned
Was it some concern
Mother laid in bed
What was it she said
Gather all your worldly jewels
And scatter them like fools
Don't you make a fuss
Days so perilous
When day is done we'll ride
Who cares what we find
Another misspent night
We thought we got it right
The driver lost a wheel
The ice turned into steel
We shivered like refugees
Way down on our knees
By the dried-up stream
We slit our throats and dreamed
When the buildings burned
Was it some concern
Mother laid in bed
What was it she said
