Red Brick Dream - XTC

Red brick dream

Windows scream

As the rusting north star shines above

And drops its iron beams

Crashing down upon the rooves of swindon town

I heard the engines dying breath

Castles and kings all starved to death

I dropped the coronation cup

Sshh, please dont wake them up from

Red brick dream

Red brick dream

Buttons gleam

By the light of the furnace pouring

Molten memories

Splashing down upon the rooves of swindon town

The men of muscle piston rods

Who forged the horses of the gods

The made the town a set of chains

And sleeping it remains in Red brick dream
