As I walk beneath the valley

I shall fear no evil

for thanks to King George and his rainbow cabinet

today murder is legal

God I know that it's wrong

to kill my brother for what he hasn't done

and as the planes blacken the sky

it sounds like heaven is falling

it sounds like heaven is falling

you promises me a new day a'dawning

I've seen a thousand points of light

like so many points of hatred, shame and horror

God I want to be a man

but I don't want to die with a rifle in my hand

and as the planes blacken the sky

it sounds like heaven is falling

it sounds like heaven is falling

you promised me a new day a'dawning

well nothing here looks new to me

but a score of mothers' sons

caught 'tween the devil and the deep blue sea
