Toyah - Revelations lyrics

rate me

Jack and Jill went up the hill<br />

To fetch a pale of water,<br />

Jack fell down and broke his crown<br />

And we came tumbling after.<br />

<br />

Up got Jack and home we went,<br />

As fast as we could caper;<br />

And Jill came home and wrapped his head<br />

In vinegar and paper.<br />

<br />

We crawl on hands and feet,<br />

Smell the scent of a fresh stream.<br />

<br />

We went up the hill like Jack and Jill<br />

To fetch our ration of water.<br />

When we got to the top the bomb was dropped,<br />

We tumbled down with laughter!<br />

<br />

Up we got with our adrenalin shock,<br />

And ran to the nearest shelter.<br />

The doors were shut they were full enough<br />

But we are true survivors.<br />

<br />

We crawl on hands and feet,<br />

Smell the scent of a fresh stream.<br />

<br />

San Francisco's fallen down<br />

<br />

We crawl on hands and feet,<br />

Smell the scent of a fresh stream.<br />

<br />

Space ships fill the sky with warmth and laughter – <br />

Who will go and who will stay?<br />

<br />

Warlords. Warlocks. Wizards. Shepherds.<br />

Will you stand up, Holy Ghost?<br />

Witches, Serpents, Superstitions;<br />

Peers and their futuristic ploys.<br />

<br />

Nosferatu, Nostradamus;<br />

Nymphs and pixies,<br />

Goblins, Demons.<br />

Crowley, Barabus<br />

John and Peter.<br />

<br />

Space ships fill the sky with warmth and laughter – <br />

Who will go and who will stay?<br />

Who will go and who will stay?<br />

Who will go and who will stay?
