Lyrics:

Lining the roads, waiting in droves
For the hearse to drive by
Quiet as a village fell
The bells they didn’t chime at all last night
Suppose we knew too but we said too few times
that we were out of light
Rubbing together two sticks
Until eventually we’re caught in the fire fight
We came to say bye
Couldn’t tell by the sky but its a grey day
A succession of years
Poured in the beer to drink the happiness away

And they recall the days before the road
And White Heather Radio
Spoke in post television local prose
The way only those pre television know

Running on the spot
Generate enough thought to harness electricity
Made from nothing into something
And back to nothing something didn’t know any way
I told a story about a night we saved four sheep in the snow
Came back to house for drams
and he drunk drove all the way home
And I keep hearing life was better in the 70s from the crew
And maybe that’s true
Maybe we’ll say the same when we bury our friends too

Rest on a fence post chat about football
until we grow old
like a child’s drawing of Heaven
Looking out on to Ben Wyvis’s glow
These fields where a childhood is spent
Generation upon generation run
Ben Wyvis in silhouette
Behind a setting sun
Lining the roads palm leaves down before
The hearse as it drives to grave
We take turns on a spade
And shovel in grain upon grain
