lyrics

Rolling On
It was another age
Beatles on TV
Football in the street
All my friends and me
We Played there all day long
We were all in clover
Nothing could go wrong
Time just rolling on
Well a small town's cool
Till you reach 16
Till the sirens call
From a brighter scene
So I packed my bags
and I moved to London
For a bright new dawn
Time just rolling on
Well I found a job
In a factory
Where I made some friends
Played guitar like me
and we formed a band
We were all in clover
Nothing could go wrong
Time just rolling on
But life moves on
New things become important
New Horizons call
To spur you on
Busy making plans for the future
While time keeps rolling on
So I'm sitting here
looking back on life
my daughter's all grown up
Still got a lovely wife
And Everything’s just fine
Everything’s in Clover
When all is said and done
Time's just rolling on
When all is said and done
Time's just rolling on

Bombs Away

There's a thing we like to do
Every time there's trouble
Based upon the view
You can't have too much Rubble

So why can't we do it?
Everybody's doing it
Because it never works
Is no reason to eschew it

And we say
Oo oo Bombs away
Damn the consequences
Oo oo Bombs away
Let's go crazy

Well we tried it once before
With dublya in the White House
Now we're up for more
Dying to let the dogs out

So why can't we do it?
Everybody's doing it
let's light the fireworks
Stand back and enjoy it

Chorus

And yeah. Here we go again
itching to join in
Ready for the starters gun once more

Chorus
Oo oo Bombs away
No more mending fences
Oo oo Bombs away
And Don't forget the navy
