Stanley Park

See that gull on the old sea wall
 Some birds fly and others fall asleep
 To the beating of their wings
 As wind sings, the wind sings
 See that babe at her mother's breast
 If I could I'd take my rest
 Back in the belly from where I came
 Nobody knows my name, knows my name
 Half asleep in a bowl of gruel
 No one told me life was cruel
 My home is in this valley now
 And it's burning down, it's burning down
 If I find the fire escape
 I'll break the glass and put on my cape
 I'll pretend I'm Superman
 Where are my friends? Where are my friends?
 I'm a poor wayfarer and
 I got no one to dry my eyes
 Time to lay this body down
 In the frozen ground, the frozen ground
 When I die Lord bring me back
 As a snow white gull I'll make my tracks
 On the sandy beach of the English bay
 Then I'll fly away, I'll fly away
