Lord Salisbury said to meThough we spend our lives in isolationGirdled 'round by the Emerald SeaNo fear shall we know.Look away, look away, look awayTo the lamp-lit squareAt the ebb of MayLook away, look away, look awayFor our survivalLord Salisbury takes his timeThe government sits in contemplationAll is ordered and in its primeNo fear shall we knowLook away, look away, look awayTo the fog-bound ship in the icy bayLook away, look away, look awayFor our survivalOn th mantelpiece is a silver clockAnd it counts the hours and they won't turn backThe evening set and the room forgetsThe day that went beforeAnd through my windowIron wheels on a cobbled mewsYou will know changes soonLord Salisbury reads the newsAnd puts the paper on the tableMany paths will be ours to chooseNo fear shall we knowLook away, look away, look awayTo the fleets of steel and the waves of greyLook away, look away, look awayFor our survivalThe Queen is old but she lingers stillLike the fading ring of a distant bellAnd Oscar Wilde in his prison cellLaments a brighter dayAnd in some window a red flag fliesIn a meeting roomYou will know changes soonLord Salisbury said to meThough we spend our lives in isolationGirdled 'round by the Emerald SeaNo fear shall we know.Look away, look away, look awayTo the lonesome cry of the modern dayLook away, look away, look awayFor our survival
