Richard Harris - The Yard Went On Forever lyrics

Is everybody safe? Has everybody got a place to hide? Is everybody warm inside? Hear them singing All the women of Pompeii Standing with the Kansas City housewives in doorways In volcanoes and tornadoes on doomsday De profundis clamavi ad te Domine Donae nobis pacem (5 times) [Out of the deep have I cried to you, Lord Grant us peace.] There were houses, there were hoses There were sprinklers on the lawn There was an ironing board And she would stand and made her understand him And ask the children what they'd done at school that day And the yard went on forever There were blouses with print roses, checkered shirts and white levis There was a frying pan and she would cook their dreams while they were dreaming And later she would send them out to play And the yard went on forever Is everybody safe? Has everybody got a place to hide? Is everybody warm inside? Hear them singing All the women of Bombay Standing with the Nagasaki housewives in doorways In eruptions and destructions on doomsday De profundis clamavi ad te Domine Donae nobis pacem (4 times)
