The Watchman's Gone

Just like birds of a feather

We too have followed the golden sun

It feels so good,

Knowin' the watchman's gone

If i give you a rose, buddy

Would you please bury it in the fields?

I seen a rose

Watchin' it all fold out



There's a train down at the station

It's come to carry my bones away

Two engines on

Twenty-one coaches long

End to end

Twenty-one coaches bend

The watchman's out

Kickin' the bums about



If i wait for the right moment

You can bet i'll climb aboard unseen

I've done it before

I know i can do it in my sleep



The watchman's out

Kickin'the bums about

The watchman's out

Kickin' your dreams about



As i leave you in the sunset

Got one more nothin' i'd like to say

"you don't know me

A son of the sea am i"

As i say to you, my brother

If you live to follow the golden sun

You better beware

Knowin' the watchman's always there



If you find me feedin' daisies

Please turn my face up to the sky

And leave me be

Watchin' the moon roll by

Whatever i was

You know it was all because

I've been on the town

Washin' the bullshit down



The watchman's out

Kickin' your dreams about

It feels so good

Knowin' the watchman's gone

It's like a song

Knowin' the watchman's gone
