[PART TWO]
[5. See There a Man Is Born / Clear White Circles (22:40 - 28:38)]
[Verse 17] See there! A man is born And we pronounce him fit for peace There's a load lifted from his shoulders With the discovery of his disease We'll take a child from him Put it to the test Teach it to be a wise man And how to fool the rest
[24:04 - 26:11 - Instrumental]
[Verse 18: Spoken] We will be geared to the average, rather than the exceptional God is an overwhelming responsibility We walked through the maternity ward And saw 218 babies wearing nylons It says here that cats are on the upgrade Upgrade? Hipgrave Oh, Mac
[Verse 19] In the clear white circles of morning wonder I take my place with the lord of the hills And the blue-eyed soldiers stand slightly discoloured In neat little rows sporting canvas frills With their jock-straps pinching, they slouch to attention While queuing for sarnies at the office canteen Saying: 'How's your granny?' and good old Ernie He coughed up a tenner on a premium bond win
[6. Legends and Believe in the Day (28:38 - 35:13)]
[Verse 20] The legends worded in the ancient tribal hymn Lie cradled in the seagull's call And all the promises they made Are ground beneath the sadist's fall
[Verse 21] The poet and the wise man stand Behind the gun, behind the gun And signal for the crack of dawn Light the sun, light the sun
[Refrain 3] Do you believe in the day? Do you believe in the day?
[Verse 22] The Dawn Creation of the Kings Has begun, has begun Soft Venus, lonely maiden brings The ageless one, the ageless one
[Refrain 3] Do you believe in the day? Do you believe in the day?
[Verse 23] The fading hero has returned To the night, to the night And fully pregnant with the day Wise men endorse the poet's sight
[Refrain 3] Do you believe in the day? Do you believe in the day?
[33:37 - 35:13 - Instrumental]
[7. Tales of Your Life (35:13 - 40:37)]
[Verse 24] Let me tell you the tales of your life Of your love and the cut of the knife The tireless oppression, the wisdom instilled The desire to kill or be killed Well, let me sing of the losers who lie In the street as the last bus goes by The pavements are empty: the gutters run red While the fool toasts his god in the sky
[Refrain 4] So come all ye young men who are building castles! Kindly state the time of the year And join your voices in a hellish chorus Mark the precise nature of your fear
[Verse 25] Let me help you pick up your dead As the sins of the father are fed With the blood of the fools and the thoughts of the wise and From the pan under your bed Well, let me make you a present of song As the wise man breaks wind and is gone While the fool with the hour-glass is cooking his goose And the nursery rhyme winds along
[Refrain 4] So! Come all ye young men who are building castles! Kindly state the time of the year And join your voices in a hellish chorus Mark the precise nature of your fear See! The summer lightning casts its bolts upon you And the hour of judgement draweth near Would you be the fool stood in his suit of armour Or the wiser man who rushes clear
[8. Childhood Heroes Reprise (40:37 - 43:46)]
[Verse 14 Reprise] So, come on ye childhood heroes! Won't you rise up from the pages Of your comic-books, your super crooks And show us all the way Well! Make your will and testament Won't you join your local government? We'll have Superman for president Let Robin save the day
[Verse 16 Reprise] So! Where the hell was Biggles When you needed him last Saturday? And where were all the sportsmen Who always pulled you though? They're all resting down in Cornwall Writing up their memoirs For a paper-back edition Of the Boy Scout Manual
[Verse 1 Reprise] So you ride yourselves over the fields And you make all your animal deals And your wise men don't know how it feels
[Refrain]
