Barrow Boy
Got yer lovely tumuluses,
Wattled daubs and timber trusses –
These will last for ages, stone or bronze.
Got yer long-house, got yer round,
I’ve got yer sacrificial mound,
I got concentric rings without the cons.
I got yer sarsens, got yer blues,
I got yer job-lot Sutton Hoos,
I got yer axe-heads – copper, flint or chert.
I’m good for grave-goods, beads and torcs –
So find me where the old roads forks
For tons of rolling earthworks, cheap as dirt.
