The SnakeThe Human League

Join us, come and join us
Join us, come and join us

There is a path that's crystal clear
It guides the wise away from here
In summer's hazy atmosphere
Or wintertime

The more the merrier they say
The moors stretch out along the way
By glow of night, by light of day
Just read the signs

'Til we can see the smoke rise in the distance
Reminding us of home not far behind
Careering through the path of least resistance
We're going on a journey of the mind

From the town to the country
From the country to the town

Come and join us
Come and join us
From the valley to the hillside
From the upside to the down

Join us, come and join us
A rush along a zigzag road
Surprised the damned, by mouth of toad
A shop where you cannot reload

The way to Hyde, the sixty-two or six two eight
Will do if you cannot be late
Sometimes the only choice to make
In wintertime

We gaze upon the face of the Apollo
We know that we approach our journey's end
And still we will be home before tomorrow
But we will rise before we must descend

From the town to the country
From the country to the town

Come and join us
Come and join us
From the valley to the hillside
From the upside to the down

Join us, come and join us
From the town to the country
From the country to the town

Come and join us
Come and join us
From the valley to the hillside
From the upside to the down

Join us, come and join us
We hear the bells, we hear the bells
We hear the bells, we hear the bells
We hear the bells, we hear the bells
They're ringing low, we hear the bells

Join us, we hear the bells
We hear the bells, we hear the bells
We hear the bells, come and join us
We hear the bells, we hear the bells
They're ringing low, we hear the bells
Come to the valley

Join us, we hear the bells
We hear the bells, come to the valley
Come and join us, we hear the bells
We hear the bells, come to the valley
Come and join us, we hear the bells
We hear the bells, they're ringing low

From the town to the country
From the country to the town
Come and join us, come and join us
From the valley to the hillside
From the upside to the down

Join us, come and join us
From the town to the country
From the country to the town

Join us, come and join us
From the valley to the hillside
From the upside to the down

Join us, come and join us

The Human League

The Human League are a synth pop band from Sheffield, England, formed in 1977. They generated a string of synthesizer-backed dance pop hits throughout the 80s. David Bowie dubbed the group “the sound of the future” in 1981.

The band is best known for its third studio album released in 1981, Dare! The fourth single from Dare, “Don’t You Want Me,” catapulted to #1 in the UK and US.

Phil Oakey is the only core member of the group. The band’s first incarnation was as an arty all-male synthesizer group, composed of Oakey, Martyn Ware, and Ian Craig Marsh. In the 1980s, Ware and Marsh left the group after continued conflicts with Oakey—they went on to form Heaven 17.
