The South Will Rise Again - The Auteurs

How does the magic move around you?

How does the magic move around you?

So come down from the castle, say

«The old town looks the same»

My father’s ghost from '53

The south will rise again

How does the magic move around you?

The queen of the south frowns upon you

Went to see the medium

Went to change my name

Came back home a better man

The south will rise again

See I was born and I will die here

And the seasons never change

Scatter my ashes in the water

The gods have smiled, all hail the new queen

The south will rise again

How does the magic move around you

Church bells ring out Sunday morning

(No one can quite believe the news)

Children’s faces betray the second coming

It’s Sunday morning

He was a leading light with his fascism of the day

We are angry and we’re geting nearer

The gods have smiled, all hail the new queen

The south will rise again

The gods have smiled, all hail the new queen

The south will rise again

How does the magic move around you?
