Red Brick Dream

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 engine's dying breath 
Castles and kings all starved to death 
I dropped the Coronation cup 
Sshh, please don't 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
