Lyrics
:
See them run Like characters in paintings Turners frightening 'scapes Industrial inside a nation of no escape There's no escape in my frightened face As we run run run And turn to stone OH LORD hear me now The fanfare sounds in a Newtown Jericho OH LORD the wailing sound Of helpless souls in a Newtown Jericho See them fall The rebecca ride at dawn Petticoat ghost and tom Working to reclaim the land for no reward There's no reward my daughters of dawn As we run run run And turn to stone OH LORD hear me now The fanfare sounds in a Newtown Jericho OH LORD the wailing sound Of helpless souls in a Newtown Jericho I've been down amongst the crying there Upon my knees I'm dying And Polsen dragged across the city walls Upon a wooden horse Horse Horse Horse This is Jericho OH LORD hear me now The fanfare sounds in a Newtown Jericho OH LORD the wailing sound Of helpless souls in a Newtown Jericho Jericho, Jericho Jericho, Jericho Jericho, Jericho Jericho, Jericho Oh lord
