Sad songs and lullabies
Are singign the world goodnight
Sleep tight little world
Sirens on Christmas day
Bad luck is here to stay
I'm watching the world go by
I'm counting out the seconds
Between thunder and lightning
The rain is nature's copper wire
It's wrapped around my feet
And I'm standing in a field
The widest open field
Pack my bags and I am on my way
One last look at how things used to be
I'll burn a fire that you can see
You'll swim ashore and rescue me
We'll build a ship and sail to sea
And start our very own country
I'm taking Abalonia
