There's honey in the hollows   And the contours of the body   A sluggish golden river   A sickly golden trickle   A golden, sticky trickle      You can hear the bones humming   You can hear the bones humming   And the car reverses over   The body in the basin   In the shallow sea-plane basin      And the car reverses over   And his body rolls over   Crushed from the shoulder   You can hear the bones humming   Singing like a puncture   Singing like a puncture      Killed to keep the world turning   Killed to keep the world turning   Killed to keep the world turning      Throw his bones over   The white cliffs of Dover   And into the sea, the sea of Rome   And the bloodstained coast of Ostia      Leon like a lion   Sleeping in the sunshine   Lion lies down   Lion lies down   Out of the strong came forth sweetness   Out of the strong came forth sweetness      Throw his bones over   The white cliffs of Dover   And murder me in Ostia   And murder me in Ostia   The sea of Rome   And the bloodstained coast      And the car reverses over   The white cliffs of Dover   And into the sea, the sea of Rome      You can hear the bones humming   You can hear the bones humming   You can hear the bones humming      Throw his bones over   The white cliffs of Dover   And into the sea, the sea of Rome      And murder me in Ostia
