The Piccolo Snare

Have you ever seen the sun

(Have you ever seen the sun)

Rising high to the sound of a gun?

Blue and white and yellow sun

(Blue and white and yellow sun)

Capturing the imagination



We went down to the piccolo drum

Never made it into the hum



Down to the piccolo

Down to the piccolo

Down to the piccolo snare



Have you ever seen the sea

(Have you ever seen the sea)

Painted red by a bleeding army?

Sky hawks gather for a feast

(Sky hawks gather for a feast)

Of pawns who will never find peace



Tumble down to the piccolo snare

Never made it into the square



Down to the piccolo

Down to the piccolo

No one particular cared



Dreaming...



Now we can go home again

To our old haunts again

Together



Now scatter us all around

Far from the bugle sound

Surrender



Safe in the exclusion zone

Catch me and take me home

As brother fights brother



Wrapped up in tarnished flags

Banners and body bags

Surrender!

Phantom!



Dreaming...
