Come forth all ye Bards

Come forth now all ye Bards
With truth against the world
Of mendacious lies of those
Who have turned and coiled
With venom to ensorcel men
To be less than who we are
Come forth now all ye Bards
Come forth all ye Bards

Come forth now all ye Bards
The danger is extreem
The limit is exceeded
The chalice is unclean
Men have truly lost their way
Poisoned are the trees
Come forth now all ye Bards
Cause blind minds to see

Come forth now all ye Bards
And wreathe us all in love
Of poetry that is not words
And does neither push nor shove
Itself to recognition
In the hearts of all
Come forth now all ye Bards
Lest we truly fall

Come forth now all ye Bards
Or give machines control
And cancer spread like a contagious wind
Smothering our souls
There is nothing for it
We have to play our roles
Come forth now all ye Bards
And let our tale unfold

Come forth now all ye Bards
And let us be unsprung
Let our tensions be let out
Let our song be sung
There are good and bad amongst us
Each a piece of the whole
Come forth now all ye Bards
And let the good times roll

(repeat first voice)
