lyrics

(In a city made of teeth,
that's where I will lay my body down.)
Marching through your salted soil
Through molar and incisor
We grew a moustache, shaved it off,
And never was the wiser
The sweet bouquet of victory
Is sticking to my jacket
The jeers and cheers of all these years
Is such a lovely racket
In a city made of teeth
In a city made of teeth (2x)
We're just a team of country boys
Sent to storm the city
It isn't very safe or strong
Or even very pretty
The Launch has given us the strength
To steal and rape and pillage
The things you own and eat and drive
And the women of your village
In a city made of teeth
In a city made of teeth
We came to town the underdogs
And now they call us heroes
Tie us to commercial stakes
With great expanding zeroes
We'll walk the streets with flags in hand
Until they bow before us,
Sing our anthem loud and strong,
And join us in the chorus
In a city made of teeth
