text: One by one, they followed the sun
  One by one, until there were none
  Two by two, to their lovers they flew
  Two by two, into the foggy dew
  Three by three, they danced on the sea
  Four by four, they danced on the shore
  Five by five, they tried to survive
  Six by six, they were playing with tricks
  How many paths did they try and fail?
  How many of their brothers and sisters lingered in jail?
  How much poison did they inhale?
  How many black cats crossed their trail?
  Seven by seven, they headed for heaven
  Eight by eight, they got to the gate
  Nine by nine, they drank the wine
  Ten by ten, they drank it again
  How many tomorrows have they given away?
  How many compared to yesterday?
  How many more without any reward?
  How many more can they afford?
  Two by two, they stepped into the ark
  Two by two, they step in the dark
  Three by three, they’re turning the key
  Four by four, they turn it some more
  One by one, they follow the sun
  Two by two, to another rendezvous
