Echo & The Bunnymen - Polly lyrics

_________________

Polly put the kettle on

I met a man

And asked of them

He told me that

The pound was strong

I knew that bridge was falling

So Jimmy put the gas masks on

And swam and swam

Up to the dam

And everyone came along

Don't think we can talk _______

____________ making war

Don't think we can risk it

Another heavy biscuit __________

Can I beat the count of ten

I'm lying just to stay alive

Dying in my _________ again

Taken to a dive

Trying to survive

When's it going to take you

And how's it gonna make you feel

You can't even spell it

So how you gonna tell

If it's real?

A bomb blew up my shelter

I never even felt a thing

I brushed away the dust and

Gave ole Jimmy Custer a ring

Don't think we can talk _______

____________ making war

Don't think we can risk it

Another heavy biscuit __________

Can I beat the count of ten

I'm lying just to stay alive

Dying in my _________ again

Taken to a dive

Trying to survive

I knew that bridge was falling

So Jimmy put the gas masks on

And swam and swam

Up to the dam

And everyone came along
