and blot the landscape
Mothers whisper
to their children
Do not go near
The Steel Hat Men
Like ancient armies
a show of might
Arms out stretched
crossing our valley's
Shadows at night
just there
just there
just there
Do not go near
The Steel Hat Men
Steel and tears
more than 100 years
You crackle your
private words
And we pay
we pay
Unsightly scene
of necessity
Who will follow
in your steps
When will your
day be done
Do not go near
The Steel Hat Men
And we wait for their
end to come
