Ted Leo Pharmacists - Hearts Of Oak Lyrics

I was walking along some downtown avenue
I was whistling a new song to myself
And it went, it went something like this one
But I just couldn't get it to end
But I was talking about this song to this friend of mine
And she sang me a new song of her own
She said, she said the cards were still stacked against her
But she said she could still do it alone

And I saw for all of us, she spoke:
"Won't you stand up for the Hearts of Oak?"

So I was listening to this song by this friend of mine.
I was hearing what she said, I was feeling her rage.
She said, “No weak, no weak heart shall prosper!"
She said, "Nothing's wrong, and I belong on this stage."

And I was for all of us, she spoke:
"Won't you stand up for the Hearts of Oak?"
And I saw her stand - she couldn't be broken.
And I saw her show, her heart of oak again and again and again and again

If you think, if you think, everything is cool (Yeah, yeah)
can't you hear, can't you hear what the girl goes through? (Yeah, yeah)
Can you tell, can you tell me that it's not true? (No, no)
Can you find, can you find hearts of oak in you?

When the night, it ends, and you've awoken
Won't you stand up with your heart of oak again?
Like the girl withstands - she can't be broken
Won't you stand up for your Hearts of Oak again and again and again and again

I was walking along some downtown avenue
I was sharing the sidewalk with my friend
We were singing this song together, and it sounded so good
We said, we said, "Let's sing it again!" (and it had no end)
