They Took a Vote and Said No Lyrics

One, two, three
Rum, ba, da, dum
Rum, ba, da, dum
Bum, ba, da, dum
Bum, ba, da, dum
Bum, ba, da, dum
Dum, ba, da, dum
Bum, ba, da, dum
Ba, da, da

He took the kid
He wants the right
They took his ears
They took his eyes
They said a ride
Is never free
He couldn't hear
He couldn't see
Well there are things
That have to die
So other things
Can stay alive
The fire burns
It burns to give
It has to burn alive to live

The other men spoke low
They took a vote and said no
They turned around real slow
Where did they go? Where did they go?

And the question oh, the question
Can the kid keep his eyes?
And the fire doesn't die, said, "no"
Said, "no"
Said, "you don't know what king we serve, boy
Oh, you don't know what things we employ"

The other men spoke low
They took a vote and said no
They turned around real slow
Where did they go? Where did they go?

Bum, ba, da, dum
Bum, ba, da, dum
Bum, ba, da, dum
Bum, ba, da, dum
Bum, ba, da, dum
Bum, ba, da, dum
Bum, ba, da, dum
Ba, da, da

And the question, oh, the question
Can the kid keep his eyes?
And the fire doesn't die
Can the kid keep his eyes?
Oh, the question, oh, the question
Can the kid keep his eyes?
And the fire doesn't die

I said be careful
What you wish for
Oh, be careful
What you wish for
And be careful
Around the fire-light
And be careful
Around the bright, bright, light
'Cause the fire never dies
So the kid lost his eyes
Oh, that's how it goes, baby
That's how it goes, baby
That's how it goes, baby
That's how it goes
