The Great 1974 Mining Disaster Lyrics

    Heard a song the other day
    About a major out in space
    And though the song was kind of grey
    It took me far away
    Heard the news the other day
    About a sailor oh so gay
    And though his policies were grey
    They took me far away
    'cause i couldn't stand the thought
    Of being taken in again

    Have you seen my life, mr. groan?
    Do you know what it's like to be outside?
    All you have to do is smile to cause a landslide
    And you do, and you do, mr. groan

    Heard a song just yesterday
    About a man who sold the world away
    And though the song was still quite grey
    It took me far away
    'cause i couldn't stand the thought
    Of being taken in again

    Have you seen my life, mr. groan?
    Do you know what it's like to be outside?
    All you have to do is smile to cause a landslide
    And you do, and you do, mr. groan
