Cineri Gloria (The Immigrant Song)

[artokh74]

This song was written and recorded on Wednesday, with some vocal overdubs and mixing done on Saturday. It was probably the most fun I've ever had recording a song. Hope that it doesn't show too much since the topic is as grim as ever.     Credits to Mrs for helping out with the vocals.

They're hanging in the trees
Hanging in the trees

We came to this country with no oppression at all
The little resistance we saw  would get crushed by their own laws
Now they're hanging in the trees, the men, women. children
And spill their blood on the land of their forefathers

They're hanging in the trees
Hanging in the trees

Cineri gloria sera est                     
Cineri gloria sera venit                 
Cineri gloria sera est                     
Cineri gloria sera venit     

Hanging in the trees
Swingin low in the trees

When you don't learn from history
you're sure to be crushed
We came here as immigrants
and we've only done what we must
to follow the prophets and the book
that teaches us all
We never waste bullets nor land
we'll burn them while they're hanging

Cineri gloria sera est                     
Cineri gloria sera venit                 
Cineri gloria sera est                     
Cineri gloria sera venit 

Cineri gloria sera est                                 
Cineri gloria sera venit                 
Morituri te salutamus                         
Dulce et decorum est pro patria mori           

They're hanging in the trees
Hanging in the trees

Swing low, swing low in the trees
They're hanging in the trees
Swingin low in the trees
Hanging in the trees

Cineri gloria sera est                                     
Cineri gloria sera venit                 
Morituri te salutamus                           
Dulce et decorum est pro patria mori           

They're hanging in the trees
Hanging in the trees
