Jacob's ladder - chumbawamba



Jacobs ladder

Like rusty old nails, at
the bottom of the sea
Telling no tales, for the
good of the Admiralty
You jump when youre told to,
through the open door
And the King of Norway, hes
the man you all died for
(Chorus)
On this, Jacobs Ladder
The only way up is down
Three days in the water
Watching all the secrets drown
Jacobs Ladder

"And they sent him
to the wars to be slain,
to be slain
And they sent him to the
wars to be slain"

A thousand lifetimes, left
standing at the docks
[ Find more Lyrics on www.mp3lyrics.org/DdE ]
In the bar down in Whitehall,
theyre sure the boat wont
rock
In a file marked 慡ecret in
a drawer kept closed
Nobody wonders, because nobody knows
(Chorus)
About this, Jacobs Ladder
The only way up is down
Three days in the water
Watching all the secrets drown
Jacobs Ladder

"And they sent him
to the wars to be slain,
to be slain
And they sent him to the
wars to be slain"
(Chorus)
On this
Jacobs Ladder
The only way up is down
Three days in the water
Watching all the secrets drown
Jacobs Ladder

O Bulldog Leader:
Sooner or later
Well dig up the body
And try your cadaver

I have never discovered another band in my entire life that has produced such a stunning quantity of both fun and meaningful music. I try and I try but I just cannot get sick of listening to these people.

[SatayBeef]

Damm I remember listening to this song and album when I was really young :)

[judoisnotamonkey]

love this song

[buckj54]

Thumbs up if you want Pretty Lights to tear this bitch (song) a new asshole!

[erickleandro]

@UKMrMick You can find them on torrent sites like isohunt.com but then you will need a torrent client such as utorrent which is easy to use.

Wow....I love this music. Thank you! Check out U.S. Citizens and the New World Order. Peace, Ven

[UKMrMick]

Great album - can play it every day, love Sewing Up Crap - more great lyrics. In fact there's hardly a meaningless song in their extensive repertoire. One of those bands that just keeps shining brightly. Does anyone know why you can never find Anarchy or Swinging With Raymond on any of the many downloads/streaming sites?

@SatayBeef Me too!

[peetrwilson]

This song came out the summer before the 2003 Iraq War started and is very telling of things to come.

(What, they did other stuff after 'Tubthumper'!)

[JanuaryBlack1996]

i like this version the best. it just something about it...

[MDWH65]

As a last comment (I'll shut up now) my grandfather was lost with HMS Acasta,. Their courageous deeds deserved - and deserve - to be honoured, not hushed up.
