Alarm - The Day The Ravens Left The Tower lyrics
rate meI've swept the floors of all my kings<br />
I've opened doors and let the tourists in<br />
Days of wine and roses<br />
Prime ministers, red robes<br />
These days are gone<br />
<br />
I've stood on guard as my Queens were born<br />
<br />
I've cut the grass on many English lawns<br />
<br />
Of strawberries and ice cream<br />
Of cricket and cold beer<br />
<br />
These days<br />
London Tower's burning. Parliament's ablaze<br />
Buckingham Palace has gone<br />
Somewhere in the distance my darling she's a crying<br />
I should be by her side<br />
<br />
This is the day the ravens left the tower<br />
This is the day the ravens fly away<br />
<br />
Fly away, fly away.<br />
Fly away, fly away.<br />
Fly away<br />
<br />
I've stood on the Changing of the Guards<br />
To the Bloody Tower watching the Crown Jewels<br />
A penny for the guy sir?<br />
Will you vote left or right?<br />
These days<br />
<br />
London Bridge is falling. <br />
St. Pauls Cathedral bums<br />
The tower blocks are gone<br />
Somewhere in the distance my darlings she's a crying<br />
I should be by her side.<br />
<br />
This is the day the ravens left the tower<br />
<br />
This is the day the ravens fly away<br />
<br />
Fly away, fly away (fly away)<br />
Fly away, fly away (fly away)<br />
Fly away, fly away (fly away)<br />
Fly away, fly away<br />
<br />
And if I live to see the dawning of the day<br />
I hope I'm in your arms as we get swept away<br />
<br />
Oh darling I will be home soon<br />
Darling I will be home soon<br />
<br />
(Ring a ring a roses, a pocket full of posies<br />
Atishoo, Atishoo, we all fall down)
