As I walk beneath the valley |
|
I shall fear no evil |
|
for thanks to King George and his rainbow cabinet |
|
today murder is legal |
|
God I know that it's wrong |
|
to kill my brother for what he hasn't done |
|
and as the planes blacken the sky |
|
it sounds like heaven is falling |
|
it sounds like heaven is falling |
|
you promises me a new day a'dawning |
|
I've seen a thousand points of light |
|
like so many points of hatred, shame and horror |
|
God I want to be a man |
|
but I don't want to die with a rifle in my hand |
|
and as the planes blacken the sky |
|
it sounds like heaven is falling |
|
it sounds like heaven is falling |
|
you promised me a new day a'dawning |
|
well nothing here looks new to me |
|
but a score of mothers' sons |
|
caught 'tween the devil and the deep blue sea |
