Alarm

Alarm - The Day The Ravens Left The Tower lyrics

rate me

I'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)
