Alan Winstanley - Mr Speaker Gets The Word Lyrics

[Intro 1, overlaps Intro 2]
Humble thyself, humble thyself and ye shall be exalted
Humble thyself and ye shall be exalted
You have all the members of your body, use them wisely
Hearken ye! Hearken ye, hearken ye [?]
Into the valley of death rode the 600
Cannons to right of them, cannons to left of them
Cannons in front of them...

[Intro 2, overlaps Intro 1]
Lars Porsena of Clusium, by the nine gods he swore
That the great house of Tarquin should suffer wrong no more
By the nine gods he swore it and bade the trysting day
And sent his messengers forth, East and West, South and North
To summon his array
East and West and South and North...

[Verse 1]
Wriggles from his captor's arms
Mr. Speaker gets the word
Running now from the alarms
Speak his mind free as a bird

Free now to roam around
Stand up straight when he quotes
Spread the word that he has found
Books of verse and scribbled notes
[Chorus]
Mr. Speaker gets the word
To tell the secrets he has heard
Speaks so fast his words are slurred
Mr. Speaker gets the word

[Verse 2]
Stands up straight outside my door
I bring you now the words I've learned
Whom it may concern, señor
Tell my friends I have returned

[Chorus]
Mr. Speaker gets the word
To tell the secrets he has heard
Speaks so fast his words are slurred
Mr. Speaker gets the word

[Bridge]
Excitement rages through his brain
Stirred and stirred throughout the years
Not enough time to explain
Eyes of madness, eyes of fear

[Verse 3]
Making space from Coney Hatch Lane
Just some poetry my friend
Scuttles past my window frame
Vanishes right round the bend
[Chorus]
Mr. Speaker gets the word
To tell the secrets he has heard
Speaks so fast his words are slurred
Mr. Speaker gets the word
