Lyrics:  

Rebels
Blue coats / white
Ragged fever / scarlet light

The whole world is on the march.
Fierce angels in flight, once defeated,
Now take back the day, and burn down the night.

Rebels
Red coats / black coats / grey coats / white.

~~~~~~~~~~~

Ontario versus Dudley George (executioner’s art)
Monuments fall,
ghosts rise in the dark.

Red Summer / Days of Rage / Black Day in July
Green Corn / Hayes Pond / White Night
Tennessee banshee cry

Rebels
Ragged fever / scarlet light
Blue coats / black coats / grey coats / red coats / white.
