Edgar Broughton Band Crying
CRY………………………………….DON'T YOU
I got off a train about midday into a yellow taxi cab
The station was deserted, the taxi driver said
‘Where you want to go the Bar, Hotel, looking for a place to go?'
I saw no-one who knew me, nor no-one did I know
I went down the mall, to Mary below, to Blackbull shop
The man said ‘My dear, she died last year' and I said I will not stop
The sky it was all bleeding, the rain cloud crashing down
But what I saw that moment could never be undone
We saw people drawn out, nobody you will steal
Statesman sitting there at the table, unharmed by fire or fear
Oh, said his name so boldly, the others followed on
What I had seen that morning could never be undone
Everything was gone, gone, everything was gone
Everything was gone, gone, everything was gone
A boy playing with a gun there, colder than the air
A bill to give him, gave him, felt he was not there
The skins they were all boiling, and the heap rose 10 miles high
I saw a priest praying for me, shockwave in the sky, sky, sky
Shockwave in the sky
