Testo di Billy's Line

Billy came down from northern scotland only yesterday Over land and under low cloud Year long winter grey Born in nineteen-seventy-seven Will die in ninety-five A modern day statistic in collateral damage Billy prays not to survive A year and a day since he went away Now everybody look at me! Without a sound He kissed the ground Billy's line Hey! you! God on my side watching you And ever since a friend had told him "billy you're looking fine" He'd sensed that a place in the human race Was looking more and more like a right divine And not a million miles from welwyn garden city His favourite melody "radio world war three" Hey! you! God on my side watching you Billy walked down the full length of the hallway And opened up the double doors Seven hundred miles to be united Billy lie down And join your family line
