[Lyric] Despots Dead (Tricks Upon Travellers)

Despot's dead
Despot's dead
Despot's dead
Despot's dead

It's a safe bet you can say
That the evil that men do
Very rarely catches up
With them in this life, it's the truth
But if it gets them next time round
It's bound to upset me
For when they get their just desserts
I won't be there to see

Despot's dead! and we'll be dancing in the street
We'll have to hang his head on high for everyone to see
Despot's dead! Burn his body in the flames
But he might burn a thousand times but he'll be back again
Despot's dead
Despot's dead
Despot's dead
Despot's dead
You can kill a man for power
You can kill a man for fun
You can kill a man for his beliefs
Or the fact that he has none
You can kill a man 'cos you don't like
The colour of his face
Or kill a man because he's coming
From another place

Despot's dead! and we'll be dancing in his grave
We'll have to hang his head on high for everyone to see
Despot's dead! Burn his body in the flames
But he might burn a thousand times but he'll be back again

Hey!

Despot's dead, hear it whispered on the street
Despot's dead, but the news is bittersweet
Despot's dead, though his body might be gone
Despot's dead, but his spirit lingers on!

Despot's dead! We'll be dancing in the street
We'll have to hang his head on high for everyone to see
Despot's dead! Burn his body in the flames
But he might burn a thousand times but he'll be back again
Despot's dead! We'll be dancing in the street
We'll have to hang his head on high for everyone to see
Despot's dead! Burn his body in the flames
But he might burn a thousand times
But he might burn a thousand times
But he might burn a thousand times
But he'll be back again!
Despot's dead!
