Ted Leo And The Pharmacists - Annunciation Day lyrics

rate me

Picture me at 12 - Annunciation Day

To be sent off to the falklands

That's for what I prayed

And the beads moved through my fingers

As I marched around the schoolyard on parade

(And I wanted to believe every word I said)

Captive from the start - you can't even find the door.

Yes, eternal peace awaits

But for now, you get eternal war

And not even the government knows

What the fuck it's for anymore

So keep on praying to mary

Virgin mother, cheatin' whore
