Drop Dead Destiny Songtext
von The Proclaimers

Propelled by events
From pillar to post
A reasoned retort
To the loyal toast
Enlightenment, please
Don′t give up the ghost
But drop-dead destiny

A billy coast voice
Untroubled by charm
An orangutan
Still waving its arms
I've heard more sense
Come out of a farm
Drop dead destiny


You′re a washed up illusion
Still making fools of us all
Now I take one step then another
Now I'm deaf to your call

When you have finally departed
I'll sing a song at your wake
One of my own compositions
A hymn to all that is fake

Propelled by events
From pillar to post
A reasoned retort
To the loyal toast
Enlightenment, please
Don′t give up the ghost
But drop-dead destiny
Drop dead destiny
