lyrics

We named the trees
And the diving seeds
And we found an old gas mask
And some rosary beads

Ip dip sky blue
Who's it? Not you
With your Oxfam dress
And your clodhopper shoes

Half-day closing and the air is still
Half-day closing and some time to kill
And blood to spill now
Ooh, ah
Half-day closing

The end of term
And we won't return
So we lit a match
Just to watch it burn

Shadows grow long
And the days glide on
But you can't forget
That you will never belong

Lights are flickering up by the reservoir
Always knew that the truth was never far
People are clustered round
A scrubby patch of ground
And a body found
On half-day closing
