this tale that signifies
a vaulting ambition
keep your counsel close
there are daggers
hid in smiles of men
falseness hiding avarice
false face must hide
what a false heart knows
this story should be told
ambition was foretold

-chorus-

sleeping with the enemy
sleep no more this night
he shall sleep no more
no sleep in fair Glamis
Cawdor sleeps no more

Those in his command
move not for his love
his false title hangs
loose upon him
he keeps his counsel close
foul whisperings are about
unnatural deeds
unnatural thoughts do breed
for his own good all causes gave way
yet Birnam comes to Dunsinane!
