Stars of Orion

[Chorus] Tell me, whose flesh is weak? Tell me, who's will's of iron? Tell me, who can count the stars The stars of Orion? Tell me, who stood in the streets At the end of that bloody day? Tell me, who stands there still? Tell me, who's washed away? [Verse 1] Shooting stars and cauldrons boil Fishing hooks and Standard Oil Pythons flex and tighten coils Defecting troops who once were loyal [Verse 2] Supplicants and White House liars Thinning ice and balding tires Silver spoons and chicken pox At midnight, we turn back the clocks [Chorus x2] Tell me, whose flesh is weak? Tell me, who's will's of iron? Tell me, who can count the stars The stars of Orion? Tell me, who stood in the streets At the end of that bloody day? Tell me, who stands there still? Tell me, who was washed away? [Outro] Tell me, whose flesh is weak? Tell me, who's will's of iron?
