Genesis - Blood On The Rooftops Lyrics
Dark and grey, an english film, the wednesday playWe always watch the queen on christmas dayWont you stay?Though your eyes see shipwrecked sailors youre still dryThe outlooks fine though wales might have some rainSaved again.Lets skip the news boy (Ill make some tea)The arabs and the jews boy (too much for me)They get me confused boy (puts me off to sleep)And the thing I hate - oh lord!Is staying up late, to watch some debate, on some nations fate.Hypnotised by batman, tarzan, still surprised!Youve won the west in time to be our guestName your prize!Drop of wine, a glass of beer dear whats the time?The grime on the tyne is mine all mine all mineFive past nine.Blood on the rooftops - venice in the springStreets of san francisco - a word from pekingThe trouble was started - by a young errol flynnBetter in my day - oh lord!For when we got bored, wed have a world war, happy but poorSo lets skip the news boy (Ill go make that tea)Blood on the rooftops (too much for me)When old mother goose stops - theyre out for 23Then the rain at lords stopped playSeems helen of troy has found a new face again.
