Heel of the Hunt
Big trouble little China – two, three, come four
Say one, say do you, say three, come on gotta say four
What you thinking, don't make me laugh, might die of laughter in my grave
Don't make me, don't make me
Oh please don't abuse me
Please don't accuse me
Oh please excuse me
Oh come on just amuse me
But don't make me laugh (be at peace now)
Ah, don't make me laugh (be at peace now child)
A lone ranger everyone could be
Their best friend though stranger to thee
Every legend something for light reading
Look for the brother's Grimm inside me
Don't make me laugh (be at peace now)
Don't make me laugh (be at peace now child)
Too much jollity round here
I got nothing left to fear
Somehow I often miss the edge
But it's the chase that turns me on
The heel of the hunt (be at peace now)
It's the heel of the hunt (be at peace now child)
The heel of the hunt
Tonto was no fool though much decried
Silver heels came through tested and tried
Don't make me laugh (be at peace now)
Oh please, don't make me laugh (be at peace now child)
Never make me smile, love (be at peace now)
Don't ever make me laugh
Oh please don't make me smile my love (be at peace now)
Oh please don't make laugh
Try to amuse me
Never excuse me
Above all never abuse me
Don't ever accuse me
Cos I don't do nothing but laugh (be at peace now)
At the heel of the hunt
All the hounds are villains all the unforgiven
The heel of the hunt
All the hounds are villains
They can never be forgiven
Will gather together (be at peace now)
Telling you now my child
You may run with the fox, you may run with the hounds
They don't know it child (be at peace now child)
You must always run with the foxes, still run with the hounds
They won't know it child (be at peace now child)
Only difference is they hunt in packs (be at peace now)
Be at peace now, cos they hunt in packs (be at peace now)
They hunt in packs, be at peace now, hunt in packs
Hunt in packs
Be at peace now
They hunt in packs
Be at peace now
They hunt in packs
