Where Are The Lionhearts

Kate Bush


"Where Are The Lionhearts"
(On the Rocks)

1 - Destiny took me in her arms and told me:
2 - "You're a little lost on the fall.
3 - You fall for all the men
4 - You shouldn't fall for all at all."
5 - Ooh, I know she knows, but still I go on,
6 - Well, I'm a fool.

7 - Climbing up the (l)adders
8 - To slide down the adders
9 - On the rocks,
10 - On the rocks,
11 - On the rocks,
12 - On the rocks...

13 - Joan of Arc walks into my mirror,
14 - A burning sword.
15 - I'd like to cry.
16 - I look into her eyes.
17 - I see she's seen the long days and night. [ca. 1'00]
18 - "Ooh," she says,
19 - "The games are still the same, I see,
20 - But they've changed the names now.
21 - Are all Lionhearts put in parks, apart?"

22 - Lionhearts in the asylums,
23 - Lionhearts tossed at sea,
24 - Lionhearts who've lived their lives, like Arthur.
25 - Lionhearts in cathedrals,
26 - Lionhearts at mournings,
27 - Lionhearts in every seed--
28 - But they're sown
29 - On the rocks,
30 - On the rocks,
31 - On the rocks,
32 - On the rocks...

33 - Somebody I couldn't see
34 - Tied me up and put me away,
35 - Here on the rocks,
36 - Here on the rocks,
37 - Here on the rocks...

- line 4: "all at all" uncertain
- line 7: She sings "adders", but surely means "ladders" Think of the board game "snakes and ladders": It is played with counters and dice in wich "ladders" afford short cuts to the finish, but "snakes" oblige players to descent to nearer the starting-point.
- line 15/16: This is: "I'd like to cry-ee..looki-into her eyes." Maybe it's "Looking.."
- line 17: uncertain, "seen the" might be "sitting", the "t" from night is inaudible.
