lyrics

His lips were blue and his face was white
His eyes were red, the stars and stripes
Stands on a plain that's painted grey
An eye in the sky as bright as day

Stands in the heat of a melted world
Stands up tall with his flag unfurled
Stands in the heat of a melted world
Stands up tall with his flag unfurled

And of all the unluckiest things to see
A velvet man served English tea
Made sure a smoke was lit for me
Gone as far as I could see

Stands in the heat of a boiled land
Thin as a rake with a sherry on hand
Stands in the heat of a boiled land
Thin as a rake with a sherry on hand

Into the vortex into the sea
Dead to the world now, that was he
Into the vortex into the sea
Dead to the world now, that is me
