Supper's Ready

Walking across the sitting-room, I turn the television off
Sitting beside you, I look into your eyes
As the sound of motor cars fades in the night time
I swear I saw your face change, it didn't seem quite right
And it's, hello, babe, with your guardian eyes so blue
Hey, my baby, don't you know our love is true
Coming closer with our eyes, a distance falls around our bodies
Out in the garden, the moon seems very bright
Six saintly shrouded men move across the lawn slowly
The seventh walks in front with a cross held high in hand
And it's, hey, babe, your supper's waiting for you
Hey, my baby, don't you know our love is true
I've been so far from here
Far from your loving arms
It's good to feel you again
It's been a long, long time, hasn't it?
I know a farmer who looks after the farm
With water clear, he cares for all his harvest
I know a fireman who looks after the fire
Can't you see he's fooled you all
Yes, he's here again
Can't you see he's fooled you all
Share his peace, sign the lease.
He's a supersonic scientist
He's the guaranteed eternal sanctuary man
Look, look into my mouth he cries
And all the children lost down many paths
I bet my life you'll walk inside
Hand in hand, gland in gland
With a spoonful of miracle
He's the guaranteed eternal sanctuary
We will rock you, rock you little snake
We will keep you snug and warm
