Album: A Passage To Rhodesia - 2014 <br />http://www.discogs.com/Rome-A-Passage-To-Rhodesia/release/5915368 <br />Lyrics: Now the mourners file in <br />Let the ceremony begin <br />Unlock the rape gate <br /> <br />To your childhood country <br />To the slow-hand war <br />Their wrath has made scavengers of us all, <br />And stripped us of our pride <br /> <br />An honorable fall <br />Their wrath has reduced us to thieves <br />Once and for all <br /> <br />Now your clouds are aching; <br />Aching with rain <br />Your laws are brown with age <br /> <br />And so I lay, shivering in the wet shade <br />Of the Fever Tree, all pale <br />With the waste of it all <br /> <br />We all felt Rhodesia's youth <br />Ebbing away; <br />Leopard crawling in the dust and thorns <br />Leopard crawling in the dust and thorns <br />Leopard crawling in the dust and thorns <br />Leopard crawling in the dust and thorns
