- Citadel LyricsMen are armed shout who goes thereWe have journeyed far from hereArmed with bibles make us swear
Candy and Taffy, hope we both are wellPlease come see me in the citadel
Flags are flying, dollar billsRound the heights of concrete hillsYou can see the pinnacles
Candy and Taffy, hope we both are wellPlease come see me in the citadel
In the streets are many wallsHear the peasants come and crawlYou can hear their lovers call
Candy and Taffy, hope we both are wellPlease come see me in the citadel
Screaming people fly so fastIn their shiny metal carsThrough the woods of steel and glass
Candy and Taffy, hope we both are wellPlease come see me in the citadel, oh well
Candy and Taffy, hope we both are wellPlease come see me in the citadel
Flags are flying, dollar billsRound the heights of concrete hillsYou can see the pinnacles
Candy and Taffy, hope we both are wellPlease come see me in the citadel
In the streets are many wallsHear the peasants come and crawlYou can hear their lovers call
Screaming people fly so fastIn their shiny metal carsThrough the woods of steel and glass
Candy and Taffy, hope we both are wellPlease come see me in the citadel, oh well
