That fear no noise
Where the thundering cannons roar.

If I had someone else's voice
But failure's always sounded better
Let's f**k it up, boys, make some noise!

Are never valued till they make a noise.

Those that will not hear, boys, waiting for the end,
Knowing it is near, boys, trying to pretend,
Sitting in cold fear, boys, waiting for the end?

Train whistle blowin',
Makes a sleepy noise;
Underneath their blankets
Go all the girls and boys.
Rockin', rollin', ridin',
Out along the bay,
All bound for Morningtown,
Many miles away.
