The World Strikes One - The Brotherhood Of Lizards

The World Strikes One Lyrics

The misty chimneys are smoking in the rain
While Harry the writer is giving his girlfriend
A goodbye kiss for the train
And kids dragged slowly by the gravity of school
See the man from the newsagent's pray for a win on
The football pools yeah
Then the world strikes one
The high street's dreaming that the trams still run
And the wartime sirens wail
Then the world strikes one
The cats out sleeping in the ten watt sun
While time and I taxi away
By gas fire dreaming of the cobblestones at dawn
Is a tired cinderella, asleep in the cellar
Her curtains constantly drawn
While change creeps strangely
Through the side streets of regret
Where the train has gone down

And the bailiffs come round
And the paving's wet
Then the world strikes one
The high street's dreaming that the trams still run
And the wartime sirens wail
Then the world strikes one
The cats out sleeping in the ten watt sun
While time and I taxi away
While time and I taxi away
While time and I taxi away
