Newtown Jericho Lyrics

    See them run
    Like characters in paintings
    Turners frightening 'scapes
    Industrial inside a nation of no escape
    There's no escape in my frightened face
    As we run run run
    And turn to stone

    Oh lord hear me now
    The fanfare sounds in a newtown jericho
    Oh lord the wailing sound
    Of helpless souls in a newtown jericho

    See them fall
    The rebecca ride at dawn
    Petticoat ghost and tom
    Working to reclaim the land for no reward
    There's no reward my daughters of dawn
    As we run run run
    And turn to stone

    Oh lord hear me now
    The fanfare sounds in a newtown jericho
    Oh lord the wailing sound
    Of helpless souls in a newtown jericho

    I've been down amongst the crying there
    Upon my knees i'm dying
    And polsen dragged across the city walls
    Upon a wooden horse

    Horse

    Horse

    Horse

    This is jericho

    Oh lord hear me now
    The fanfare sounds in a newtown jericho
    Oh lord the wailing sound
    Of helpless souls in a newtown jericho

    Jericho, jericho
    Jericho, jericho
    Jericho, jericho
    Jericho, jericho

    Oh lord
