Hey Louis

Cars are too fast 'cos the drivers are slow
C#m. F#
Joy-ride boy died and I think to myself.
BEF#BEF#
From Magdalene to Sellafield there's scant regard for how we feel
BEF#
Sheep are green, dead roses too
C#m. F#
I know it sounds bleak but hey, dont despair.

It generates a warmth around the ground that augers well for mankind

The raft of dreams we sailed in the bay has foundered on the reefs of today
BEF#
Ill wind blows through my cape of no hope
C#m. F#
Dock Road can-lad on the end of a rope
BEF#BEF#
Yet by the stream in summer time, the charming lark, the country chime
BEF#
Smite this faithless pantomime
C#m. F#
Welcome to the daylight at the back of my mind.

Trouble is these days you never see a dog on the pitch.
