Lyrics
Propelled by events
From pillar to post
A reasoned retort
To the loyal toast
Enlightenment, please
Don't give up the ghost
But drop-dead destiny
A billy coast voice
Untroubled by charm
An orangutan
Still waving its arms
I've heard more sense
Come out of a farm
Drop dead destiny
You're a washed up illusion
Still making fools of us all
Now I take one step then another
Now I'm deaf to your call
When you have finally departed
I'll sing a song at your wake
One of my own compositions
A hymn to all that is fake
Propelled by events
From pillar to post
A reasoned retort
To the loyal toast
Enlightenment, please
Don't give up the ghost
But drop-dead destiny
Drop dead destiny
Writer(s): Charles Stobo Reid, Craig Morris Reid
