Red Oyster Cult lyrics
There we stand about to fly Peeking down over land Parachute behind What was that moment for which we live? Without a parachute about to dive I find myself convincing Blindly falling faster How easy Know the plac
They say immigrants steal the hubcapsThere we stand about to fly Peeking down over land Parachute behind What was that moment for which we live? Without a parachute about to dive I find myself convincing Blindly falling faster How easy Know the plac

They say it would be wine an' roses
If England were for Englishmen again
Well I saw a dirty overcoat
At the foot of the pillar of the road
Propped inside was an old man
Whom time would not erode
When the night was snapped by sirens
Those blue lights circled fast
The dancehall called for an' ambulance
The bars all closed up fast
My silence gazing at the ceiling
While roaming the single

I thought the old man could help me
If he could explain the gloom
You really think it's all new
You really think about it too
The old man scoffed as he spoke to me
I'll tell you a thing or two
I missed the fourteen-eighteen war
But not the sorrow afterwards
With my father dead and my mother ran off
My brothers took the pay of hoods
The twenties turned the north was dead
The hunger strike came marching south
At the garden party not a word was said
Mournul, Yet And Forever lyrics
In the wind of evil eyesI watched every frozen starsurrounding a dyong sunTwilightclimbing up so highshow me all your gloryand guide me on the roadWinds of ages tragediessaw its steamBlazed higher than all tho
The ladies lifted cake to their mouthsIn the wind of evil eyesI watched every frozen starsurrounding a dyong sunTwilightclimbing up so highshow me all your gloryand guide me on the roadWinds of ages tragediessaw its steamBlazed higher than all tho
The next war began and my ship sailed
With battle orders writ in bed
In five long years of bullets and shells
We left tem million dead
The few returned to old Piccadily

There was masters an' servants an' servants an' dogs
They taught you how to touch your cap
But through strikes an' famine an' war an' peace
England never closed this gap
So leave me now the moon is up
But remember all the tales I tell
The memories that you have dredged up
Are on letters forwarded from hell
The streets were by now deserted
The gangs had trudged off home
The lights clicked off in the bedsits
An' old England was all alone
