edgar broughton band - poppy - 2004 digital remaster lyrics

e. broughton / e. broughton-s. broughton-unitt

i laid on a poppy
it laid on me
a lot of thinking
and did it all for free
i thought of you…..
i thought of you
i wanted to swim in the river
but i saw what they had done
all the fish are dying in there
and we ain’t got no sun
i thought of you…..
i thought of you
i wandered in a meadow
all that rubbish there
look at them with the plastic picnic
talking ’bout the length of my hair
i laid on a poppy
it laid on me
a lot of thinking
and did it all for free
i thought of you…..
i thought of you
i wanted to swim in the river
but i saw what they had done
all the fish are dying in there
and we ain’t got no sun
i thought of you…..
i thought of you
i’m gonna take a walk in the country
take a look at that big blue sky
take a breath of that clean spring air
before they say die
i thought of you…..
i thought of you
i could fall down
would you stand me up
it’s not enough for you to say you love me
who’s the lad who’d k!ll his dad
for the sake of the right to belong
to the new confusion
i don’t believe it
don’t even know which day it is

do you trust in a world that turns about
while another mother’s sons are being borrowed
can you laugh aloud
while you’re crying inside
for the years that you tried to belong
to the old confusion
i don’t believe it
don’t even know which day it is
i don’t want life in the company
you are undone by the smell
of next week’s savings
i don’t want god in the three-and-nines
you’re so fine
you’ll be ill from your own virtue
i don’t believe it
don’t even know which day it is
we’re of the same opinion
so hard to tell us apart
we’re at the foot of the future
and it’s kicking us up the past
