You can sit around all day waiting for saviours - better to give it fast forward away from your persecutors............................

lyrics

The Holy Roman Empire
Are coming for us
The burning church and crooked spires
Want to be our saviours
Their foraging armies
Take all our provisions
Don’t wait for me
Where is The King Of Sweden ?
Where is The King Of Sweden ?

Why can’t life be like it was
We don’t need a new God
We didn’t need salvation
We don’t need to be a nation

They come up The Spanish Road
You hear them marching so slow
They’re followed by the murder crows
Death is coming and we all know
Nothing on earth can stop them
This was our garden of Eden
There is so many of them
Where is The King Of Sweden ?
Where is The King Of Sweden ?

Why can’t life be like it was
We don’t need a new God
We didn’t need salvation
We don’t need to be a nation

Well the Scottish Mercenaries
Won’t show no mercy
And nobody ever told me
I would die this early
The dawn chorus of babies
Squealin for their feedin
And I ain’t heard laughter lately
I ain’t heard laughter lately
O Where is The King Of Sweden ?

Why can’t life be like it was
We don’t need a new God
We didn’t need salvation
We don’t need to be a nation

I was born to die in Magdeburg
For Martin Luther and Calvin
But the sweetest sound I ever heard
Was your sweet voice a singin’
It’s a memory I cling to
As we all lie bleedin
It’s the only God I sing to
Where is The King Of Sweden ?
Where is The King Of Sweden ?

Why can’t life be like it was
We don’t need a new God
We didn’t need salvation
We don’t need to be a nation
