lyrics

As I wait for the starting whistle
Frost was turning black, black, black
And clouds come from my nose
The greyhound wears a muzzle
The greyhound wears a muzzle
Cast the beasts out of him
Cast the beasts out of him
Bayonet Bayonet
Bayonet Bayonet

As we race towards the starving thistles
Frost was turning black, black, black
And clouds come from my nose
The sea she wears a muzzle
The silence sweeps her womb
Cast the beasts out of her
Cast the beasts out of her
Bayonet Bayonet
Bayonet Bayonet

The boy who blew the whistle
Frost was all around, round, round
And clouds come from my nose
A human wears a collar
A human wears a collar
Cast the beasts out of him
Cast the beasts out of him
Bayonet Bayonet
Bayonet Bayonet

As I wait for the final curtain
Frost was turning black, black, black
And clouds come from my nose
The greyhound wears a muzzle
The greyhound wears a muzzle
Cast the beasts out of him
Cast the beasts out of him
Bayonet Bayonet
Bayonet Bayonet
