Down The Dolce Vita - Peter Gabriel

«Hey Mac, see you down the Dolce Vita!»

«Get back, we don’t have time

'Cause I hear we’re sending off the heroes

When the year goes, out of the bay

Trying to find a way

To make it alive»

«So long,» said four men to their families

«Be strong until we get back home

And if not, take care of all the children

Until then just hope and pray

We’re going to find a way

To make it alive»

«You guys are crazy!»

They shout and then we leave the harbor

In doubt, they’re acting weird

And the sea is whipping up a welcome

If hell come we’re all easy prey

Trying to find a way

To make it alive

«You guys are crazy!»

The captain’s hand shook for the guys to get in place

He said, «Let's look behind your face»

With each corner covered, they were all around

Waiting for the midnight bell to sound

«Out of sight,» cried Aeron through his glasses

«Don't fight» said Gorham’s smile

All the while, his hand was on my shoulder

I was scared of being easy prey

Trying to find a way

To make it alive

I won’t be easy prey

Gonna find a way

To make it alive
