Roy Harper - First Thing In The Morning lyrics

Yesterday the poppies sprang From bodies of complaint Heroes mown in thousands To preserve a coat of paint That once was spread on thin air And is consequently faint Without it got to my time-zone This evening And here's the future Here and now for what it's worth And hallelujah There ain't a way this fool can leave this earth Round and round Round and round Round and round The company this evening Are conveniently spaced As not to rock the boat On which they placed themselves in haste In rows of nuclear hutches Watching boxes and disgraced On board the sinking Mayflower Of the conscience And here's the future Here and now for what it's worth And hallelujah There ain't a way this fool can leave this earth First thing in the morning When there ain't a place to go Nowhere to get up to bade Not a stroke to do I'll meet you undercover And we'll make it nice and slow To celebrate the pa**ions Of great fortune 'Cause here's the future Here and now for what it's worth Hallelujah There ain't a way I wanna leave this earth There ain't a way There ain't a way I wanna leave this earth Round and round Round and round Round and round
