lirik lagu god save the king – nick edelstein
when i was a boy, we sang “god save the queen.”
in 1901, now we know what it means
my father was strong, with cold eyes wintergreen
he said, “legends expire to make way for machines.”
gone are the days of victorian witches, and
werewolves and monsters, and
vampires ruling the night
now it’s quicksilver switches
radios and plastic, and
airplanes taking flight
god save the king …
we cried, “heaven, help us!” and looked to the sky
our voices combined, our prayers amplified
the beasts and the demons, they did terrify!
at night to our children, we sang “lullaby …”
my daddy said, “son, it’s a new day for man
factories with -ssembly lines all ‘cross the land
the ways of this world, you’ll soon understand
our gods are the gears, our lives they demand.”
gone are the days of victorian witches, and
werewolves and monsters, and
vampires ruling the night
now it’s quicksilver switches
radios and plastic, and
airplanes taking flight
god save the king …
