Strontium 90 - Towers Tumbled Lyrics




Towers tumbled - all the buildings crumbled

Volcanoes rumbled

Insurance salesman mumbled

Ballerians bumbled - all the heroes stumbled

Politicians fumbled



Suddenly a hand held out - take a ticket tout

It was a chart - it was a card

And those are your instructions

And what he offered in his hand

It was a diagram - master plan

A secret plan for your deduction



Crystals shatter - all the singers chatter

While the drums just clatter

Your silken raiment's tatter

While all the poets chatter - "Oh, it doesn't matter"

Please ignore the latter

Settle back you're growing fatter

Oh you know you've got no conception

Well, you're far out in space

I see you trying to trace a design

Of your heart on the stars



On the open ocean, like an open book

See the feeble fumble for a better look

See the sheep shake

In their sleep wake

Not an earthquake

Or a death wake



And all the while

Through the testing and the trials

She smiles

Eternity smiles
