Fade to White
NICHOLAS CURRIE
In the slaughterhouse the Braw
Puts down his bloody horror saw
The lightning strikes the airliner
Which crashes to the ground
Death's a sneak thief in the night
And life is cheap is space is tight
All the broken Daddy Longlegs
Scattered on the ground
In the slaughterhouse the Braw
Puts down his bloody horror saw
In the end we fade to white
La la la la la
Phoebus the Phoenician sails
His longboat leaves a bloody trail
Behind it flies a nightingale
La la la la la
