Trust is elusive
When you are in a train with
Sinister people.
Sinister people
lurking 'round every corner;
paranoid nightmare
Paranoid nightmare
If you live in London but
Worse in Is-ra-el.
worse in Israel,
I feel, is night time filled with
too many dark thoughts
Too many dark thoughts!
I must turn on the light of
my mind and think good!
My mind, and think good
Thoughts, should I someday need you
To offer me peace.
To offer me peace,
nothing like the deep blue sea,
sail away... my dream...
Sail away, my dream
Ship is the Queen Mary II
I want to travel
I want to travel
On the breeze where the moonlight
Sails in the new dawn
Sails in the new dawn
Billow gently on the sea
And carry me home
And carry me home,
Country roads, carry me home
The rest escapes me.
The rest escapes me
The mind constantly whirring
No sleep for this child
No sleep for this child
Of nature, cowering in
The lilac bushes.
The lilac bushes
Turning brown in the hot sun
Let the rain come down
Let the rain come down!
Oh Lordy, let it fall on
These sinful men!
These sinful men,
Aching toward promised lands
Lord, grant them refuge.
Lord, grant them refuge
Children whose only sin is
Being born too poor
Being born too poor
Didn't stop Gamal Nasser
Being president.
Being President
In these States, ass of the hole,
Lord deliver us.
Lord deliver us
From lang-leggety beasties
And melancholy.
