Biografía:
Minneapolis-based folk rockers Boiled in Lead may have started as a Celtic punk band back in the 80s, but as the years went by, they incorporated aspects of folk music from just about every part of the world, including the Balkans and the Middle East, all done up in their hard-rocking style (both acoustic and electric).
The band has always sought to play a variety of music, both songs and instrumentals and with a large variety of guest musicians and sometimes some unusual instruments.

Boiled in Lead
Album: _Orb_
Words and music: Todd Menton
INTRO (single strokes): D D Em G F#m F#m D Em G F#m F#m F#m Bm A
D D Em G F#m F#m D Em G F#m (full measure)
Em (full measure)
D Em G F#m
In my dream I'm suddenly in the army
Em G F#m
And the army life is good
Bm A
But I'm ankle deep in blood
D Em G F#m
So I went to see the quartermaster
Em G F#m
And the quartermaster said
F#m Em
"Your socks are awful red"
I found the master sergeant
I said "Sergeant, I am hurting
I'm considering deserting."
He said "Do whatever's in your conscience"
So I tried to make a run
But I was stapled to the gun
D Em G F#m
CHORUS: And the cannon were lined up all in a line
G F#m
Dark and cold
G F#m
They aimed them all straight upward
Em D
And thunder rolled
REPEAT INTRO
I found the first lieutenant
He said "God, they're going to bomb us
>From their vicious flying llamas!"
I dove into the llama shelter
I became Charlotte Cordet
And the battle fell away
But the peace that reigned in Upper Dreamland
Was badly negated
When the giant slugs invaded
I turned to face my fine young officers
I was barking out my orders
When they crashed across the borders
CHORUS TWICE
Repeat intro chords, end on D
