Verse 4
A 
We played a game of
cowards and heroes
We lay the rules on the floor
But then we spoke of flowers
and quiros
It ended up in a draw

But all the time they
were bound and belittled
A 
I  wouldn't let them
G 
go . go, go !
Gm 
I only want to use them for skittles
D 
A 
And drift away to a land of my own

Interlude 1

Verse 5
A 
They were begging over and over;
"if we behave can we feed ? "
Began to throw them piece of clover
G 
And said;"now count the leaves !"
I realised it was only a battle
A 
G 
And went to look for the war (haw ! haw !)
My brains began then to rattle
Gm 
G 
D 
And drift away to a land of their own
