Oh, what will you give us? say the sad bells of U.S. Indeed! You are smitten! Say the bells of Great Brittan It is such a pity! Weep the weak bells of Italy You did sing, you did dance, say the smug bells of France Now, where is your harmony? Say the cold bells of Germany It's a terrible plan! Say the bells of Japan Oh, don't be a whiner, Say the red bells of China Yes, your demise we ushered, Say the hard bells of Russia We will use violence say the black bells of ISIS. There can be no more borders Said the New World Order I will steal your last breath Said the grey bells of death We will treat you well lied the hot bells of hell... *And, what will you give us? Say the sad bells of U.S.* SoulSurvivor (C) 12/31/2015 All rights protected

The Bells of the U.S.
Oh, what will you give us? say the sad bells of U.S. Indeed! You are smitten! Say the bells of Great Brittan It is such a pity! Weep the weak bells of Italy You did sing, you did dance, say the smug bells of France Now, where is your harmony? Say the cold bells of Germany It's a terrible plan! Say the bells of Japan Oh, don't be a whiner, Say the red bells of China Yes, your demise we ushered, Say the hard bells of Russia We will use violence say the black bells of ISIS. There can be no more borders Said the New World Order I will steal your last breath Said the grey bells of death We will treat you well lied the hot bells of hell... *And, what will you give us?

The bells of hell verse co-written by Ian Woods... Thanks Ian! Based upon the song "The Bells of Rhymney" sung by Pete Seeger, The Byrds and Judy Collins on YouTube. It is about a great coal mining disaster and failure of the 1926 strike that resulted from this tragedy. -
