[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1]

Crooks lay in a weighted state

Waiting for the dead assassin

While the rust pure powder puffs

A shimmering opaque red

Papers spread, no one driving

We hurled direct ahead

[Chorus]

The windows dark green tinted

The hearse, a taxi instead

[Verse 2]

Snow storms forecast imminently

In areas Dogger, Viking

Moray, Forth, and Orkney

Keeping cover in denuded scrub

The school destroyed raised the club

Panic spreading with threat of fire

[Chorus]

Crowding beneath a layer of foam

Refugees intertwined, alone

[Bridge]

Within the institution walls

In pastel blue, clinical white

Slashed red lipstick

Mercy nurse tonight!

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]

Seems like dark grey stockings

In the raking torchlight

With a 4 A.M. stubble

A midnight transvestite

[Instrumental Break]

[Outro]

Moray, Forth, and Orkney
