In 1954 the British Government, in order to maintain the balance
of power between East and West, exploded their first atom bomb at
Woomera. They failed to contact all of the Aborigine peoples at
the time. The Aborigines still call this 'the day of the cloud.'
A new born land
Dreaming by the sky
The scent of colours
In the flowers
Believe it's small
In many ways
It holds the key
That divides the super powers
This road is never lonely
To ENGLAND they are tied
They were blasted by the Silver Cloud
There were blasted to the wall alive
This place, this place ain't big enough for stars and stripes
Counting out the statesmen
Bungling one by one
Spelling out this segregation
So the catchword be
Looking after number one
They release the fear inside
Are human after all
So begins our dream time
They hunted like the dinosaur
We the pure
They the savage innocent
How we crush our existence after all
Come on
For without them
We are lonely
This England we are blind
Like all the Empires crumble
Will surely change the tide
This place ain't big enough for red and white
This place ain't big enough for stars and stripes
This place - This place
This place is theirs, by their birthright
This place
The sun gives better reasons
United we are blind
To deliver our existence
Keep it up
Keep it up
This human tide, give it some
We can break the ties
Of recent changes
Know the ones who
Hold the key
Singing out the congregation
We are them and they are we
This place ain't big enough for red and white
This place ain't big enough for stars and stripes
This place
This place
This place is theirs by their birthright

Carry forth as a guardian to Kingdom Come
With your daggers of the spirit
Let the dagger run
With the Fist of Fire
Be the master now
As the darkness of ages past

Riches silver and gold
In the liquid see
Cast a net can you catch
So you can't see me

As in death you can climb
Higher thru the sky
Show your wings
Surely you can fly

Fly away past the guardian to Kingdom Come
See the miracle of life
Disappear it's gone

Go carry your silver ships of light
Go carry your silver ships of light
Go carry your silver ships of life
Go carry your silver ships of life
Go carry your silver ships of life

Keep the fire in your hand
It won't let you drown
As you fly with your wings
Won't come falling down

See the flower of youth
Disappear on high
As you gather your true wings
About to fly

To be ready
To be strong
Make it run

This righteous
This wrong
This right
This love

This is how nature controls
The way of all things
this is how the angels sing
Not afraid
No, not afraid
Not afraid of this or that
Not afraid

Carry forth as a guardian to Kingdom Come
With the ghost
And the spirit
Let the fire run

Thru the darkest age
We can surely fly
Thru the darkest age
With the Fist Of Fire
Thru the darkest age
With the Fist of Fire

(Anderson/Howe/Wakeman/Bruford)
Jump out this next world
Is gone overground
That sky is ecstasy dancin'
My child my woman
My daughter my son
Together planning to party
Just wait for me
Out in the street
Teakbois in everywhere
Dancing with you
We're coming thru
Somehow we'll all be there
This time is surely
Come once and for all
We've waited so now
We are ready
Be quick be ready
Be sure and be smart
No need the energy wasted
I've dreamed of music
That comes from the heart
As tho' the eagle has landed
Just wait for me
Out in the street
Teakbois is everywhere
Dancing with you
We're coming thru
Everyone will be there
She smiles my mind
Is just blown I can't stop
No time is better than now
I wake up everyday
Before the sun is coming up
Bobby Dread and the kool running
The fish to catch
The sea to swim
They say I gotta life
To live
Bobby Dread and the kool running
My music is my only witness
To my very soul
Bobby Dread and the kool running
So when you need me
All you have to do is help me
Lose control
Bobby Dread and the kool running
They say the world's a stage
So let me play for you and you and you
Bobby Dread and the kool running
It's all I ever in my life
I really wanted
To sing and do
Bobby Dread and the kool running
We form a group a simple name
A secret harmony like
Bobby Dread and the kool running
We write our songs
We symphonise
Some people say they like us
Bobby Dread and the kool running
This summer you couldn't get it

(Anderson / Howe / Wakeman / Bruford)
Surely I could tell
When I sleep tonight
A dream will call
And raise it's head in majesty
Dividing all my energy
To the meeting of your love
Where from whence it came
Like a singer searching for a song
I try to reach where you belong
As I will be the song for you
I will be your servant child
No, oh no
I cannot be deceived
No, oh no
There's something
That I feel
There's something that I feel inside
Surely I could tell
If you ask me Lord
To board the train
My life my love would be the same
As I could be the one for you
In the meeting of your love
In the meeting of your love
