"Piece By Piece" lyrics

(Peace, peace, peace, peace, peace, peace, peace) piece by piece - slice by slice
A strainless leash - Das Volk enticed
The boiling frog that did not leap
Just take one grain, it's still a heap

Of sound and disposing mind, memory and understanding
I hereby publish and declare this to be my testament
To my eldest son I leave the right to speak his mind
And my daughter shall be free from oppression of any kind
I have sacrificed, worked all my life, as have the ones before me
So do not squander, do not gamble; watch it carefully

Piece by piece - slice by slice
A strainless leash - Das Volk enticed
The boiling frog that did not leap
Just take one grain, it's still a heap

By checking this box
I acknowledge, I confirm
I've read and understood the terms
Scroll down, tick, confirm

Piece by piece - slice by slice
A strainless leash - Das Volk enticed
The boiling frog that did not leap
Just take one grain, it's still a heap

The tide is turning
The Reichstag burning
They're at the border
Need law and order

It was not my shout
I did not speak out
When they come for me
Who will be left to speak for me?

Stay alert and keep your eyes skinned
Watch the clouds form and feel the wind
When you're asking should you reef
The time to do so is long gone
Principiis obsta, don't forget:
The longer you wait, the harder it gets

Piece by piece - slice by slice
A strainless leash - Das Volk enticed
The boiling frog that did not leap
Just take one grain, it's still a heap...
