"A Beautiful Peace" lyrics - ROBERT WYATT

ROBERT WYATT
"A Beautiful Peace"

I've been walking for hours,
Needed a rest.
Take a good look around,
Nowhere to rest.

There's a shop
Selling gentlemen's suits.
Further along
An estate agent or two.

And a take-away sign
Over a dusty door.
Shiny photos of food,
Slightly microwaved.

There's a Methodist hall.
No Smoking
No Dogs
In the Methodist hall.

It looks pretty grim
In the Methodist hall,
Despite a poster which says that
"He's There for Us All"

And it's a beatuful day,
For walking away

Its's a beautiful day,
But not there.
