LyricMeaning

Blitz Babies
Bernie Taupin

I remember running as the siren screamed

Bedding down in a bunker on the warden's knee

Trying to play it cool and act my age

As the war birds swooped and the blitzkrieg raged


But you can't really blame it on Friday night

If the radio's dead and they've doused the lights

Old Churchill told us we'll stay free

Just lay the blame on Germany


Blitz babies, born to be crazy

Kids, too young to fight

Spitfires hummin', Messerschmidt's a comin'

Doodlebugs dancin' on the West End nights


Blitz babies, England made us


Listen to your labor lies

Now we're older ships on our shoulders

Working men, spit into the unions eyes


But you can't really blame it on Friday night

When the blinds are down for the comin' fight

My old man's crowing through his cockney pride

Sayin' just remember, boy, God's on our side


Chased through the rubble as the buildings shook

For breaking into houses, stealing rasion books

The hard hats tanned us, they took our names

As we whistled at the WAF's and watched the flames
