Lyrics:
The moon sheds no light on Salisbury plain
The day turns to night and the bonfires cease burning
The druids gather round and the chants fill the air
home
From the Gobi Desert
To the Salisbury Plain
You can see them standing
Where they still remain
They honor the stars
These earthly bones
Let us bow
nervous in Northumberland
And Devon is down the drain,
They're filled with wrath
On the firth of Forth
And sullen on Salisbury Plain,
In Dublin they're
nervous in Northumberland
And Devon is down the drain,
They're filled with wrath
On the firth of Forth
And sullen on Salisbury Plain,
In Dublin they're
From the Arizona desert
To the Salisbury plain
Lights on the horizon
Patterns on the grain
Anxious eyes turned upward
Clutching souvenirs
nervous in Northumberland
And Devon is down the drain,
They're filled with wrath
On the firth of Forth
And sullen on Salisbury Plain,
In Dublin they're
the morning breeze
Fear in my stomach, fear in the sky
I eat my dinner with a weary eye
After all this it won't be the same
Messing around on Salisbury
in Northumberland
And Devon is down the drain
They're filled with wrath on Firth of Forth
And sullen on Salisbury plain
In Dublin they're depressed
Now Parrish was born on a summer's morn
High up on Salisbury plain
His parents were surprised when he opened his eyes
And said how do You do Parrish
fallin' away
I kicked around with Harry
Who lived near Salisbury Plain
He worked on the cathedral there every now and again
He worked with stone,
with Harry who lived near Salisbury Plain
He worked on the cathedral there every now and again
He worked with stone, carved with stone, odd jobs
A-OK)
Daily leaves on the lines again
Got to get away
Wake up, calling Salisbury Plain, far far away Anybody taking anything
Any time any place,
Is eerily similar to the relationship of the
English mind to it's earth mysteries
Out there on the Salisbury Plain
It's a human agency
And therefore
Sits as the defining landmark
Of England's Salisbury Plain
But alas...
Despite all of these numerous efforts
The question still remains
Who?
Or what?
Is
canal
Floods the flats of Salisbury Plain
And the Armada sails from Spain
Trains its cannons on the town
And we are all condemned to drown
If someone
issued from the
Standing stones of Salisbury plain.
Inoxarably the sounds crescendoed into the
Shrieking wail of the druids.
While they turned to stone...
[Music by Arkadius, Marcel; Lyric by Marcel]
[Arthur:]
Still the giants dance
At salisbury plain
Still my spirit wanders
To reach this higher aim
Respice, prospice, send us down
In Salisbury sat the jury
That's who they claimed to be
Ten bare minutes it took them
To find the young the boy guilty
