March 2003, An Audenesque
- O what is that light there, over the hills,
shining so brightly, brightly?
- The dawn is nearing, hush, Baby, hush,
the night’s getting shorter nightly.
- O what is that noise coming out from the sky,
screeching and howling, howling?
- The thunderstorm’s brewing, hush, Baby, hush,
the raindrops will soon start falling.
- O why all these people are running so fast,
running and screaming, screaming?
- They do it for fun, they do, hush, Baby, hush,
the running is good for slimming.
- O why is this boy crying out in the yard,
where are his Mother and Father?
- This is just some cats mewing, hush, Baby, hush,
they are calling one another.
- You’re lying to me! It’s a war, it’s a war;
the soldiers are killing, killing!
- You just had a bad dream, hush, Baby, hush,
there isn’t a war in Ealing*.
