Rumours Of War Lyrics - Singles - Billy Bragg

There were soldiers marching on the common today 

They were there again this evening 

They paced up and down like seabirds on the ground 

Before the storm clouds gathering 

 

I must buy whatever tin food is left on the shelves 

They're testing the air-raid sirens 

They've built up the blood-banks and emptied the beds 

At the hospital and the asylum 

 

Saw a man build a shelter in his garden today 

As we stood there idly chatting 

He said "No, no I don't think war will come" 

Yet still he carried on digging 

 

Everything in my life that I love 

Could be swept away without warning 

Yet the birds still sing and the church bells ring 

And the sun came up this morning
