The Fence Still Rattles
Style: Ceilidh jig

[Verse 1]
You hit that gate at a run
Bags flying, laughing out loud
The wire fence shakes as you come
You always turn up proud

[Pre-chorus]
Everybody feels it when you're near
Something lifts, the noise gets clear
So raise your glass and lend an ear

[Chorus]
Monica, the day is yours
Loud as bells and bright as brass
We're banging on these rattling doors
Just to watch you laughing pass

[Verse 2]
Backpacks drop like stones let go
You never carry heavy long
Straight through the crowd you always go
And somehow turn it into song

[Chorus]
Monica, the day is yours
Loud as bells and bright as brass
We're banging on these rattling doors
Just to watch you laughing pass

[Bridge]
Another year, still shaking free
Still first one through the gate
We're glad you're exactly who you'll be
No candle here could ever wait

[Chorus]
Monica, the day is yours
Loud as bells and bright as brass
We're banging on these rattling doors
Just to watch you laughing pass

[Outro]
The fence still rattles where you ran
We're cheering louder than it can
