The Men Who Dance in Stag’s Heads lyrics

[Verse 1]
The sun will go out
Go back in its box
Forever chained
It's done its job
The teller's curse
And for what it's worth
A metal chain
A hammered claw
A pointed tooth
The sun has gone out
We sign their papers
We line their pockets

[Chorus]
You should leave now (Men who)
You should leave now (Dance)
You should leave now (In stags' heads)

[Verse 2]
First come the shadows
And then the dirt
From what they stole
And say they borrow
With the wild and red (You should leave now) (Men who)
And the half-mad (You should leave now) (Dance)
And you forever chained (You should leave now) (In stags')
You and yours (Heads)
They bet a dollar (You should leave now) (Men who)
And pay no taxes (You should leave now) (Dance)
Go back in the box now (You should leave now) (In stags')
To the gallows pole (Heads)
[Outro]
The sun has gone out
The son of the old boss
The never chained
Ne'er do well
We sign their papers (You should leave now) (Men who)
We line their pockets (You should leave now) (Dance)
The men who dance (You should leave now) (In stags')
In stags' heads (Heads)
