lyrics

Before bombs split the land
When it was Eddie Stobart green
When you were chasing out the tribes
Like some Roman centurion
Would you walk the Cheddar Gorge
Or would you be the first born?
Falling from Albina's womb
In an electrical storm

Stain glass Latin
Lit by the lolloping sun
Or a great suburban fire
Somewhere out there
I used to see my peninsula
But the fog has obscured it in to a distant blur

You're flicking through the glossies
Lounging on the mincer belt
Yeah, as we crash against the cliffs
In a flash of white lightning
Barefoot walking through the watercress bed
And your mother's in the Wrens
Collapse the history in on itself, why not?
Well it's all we can do isn't it?

Fallen arches, acres of land
Park swans, Roman amphitheatres
Knocked down and rebuilt
For all the fast food lovers
Talking about cricket
On a jittery locomotive in the wind
