Down Came The Sun

(album: Robin's Reign - 1970)

You like to think that you are Admiral Nelson
With a gun, a wife and son
So why don't you grow up and be a Policeman
And probably then; you'll be with men
Or maybe be a walker with a guitar
But then you'll stop and start to crawl

Down came the sun
The world has finally won
Bang goes the Earth
The stars and the sky know what it's worth

Now I'm an evil man, I sing a new song
But all the same; I'm still to blame
So now my only son is leaving teaching
And on the run, for bad is done

Down came the sun
The world has finally won
Boom goes the moon
We wonder why it happened so soon

Down came the sun
The Army have loaded every gun
Down came the sun...
