UFO's "Lights Out" album cover. [Formatted]

Wind blows back and the batons charging
It winds all the way
Right to the butt of my gun
Maybe now your time has come

From the back streets there is a rumbling and smell of anarchy
No more nice time, bright-boy shoe shines
Pie in the sky dreams

Lights out in London
Hold on tight until the end
Better now you know we’ll never wait until tomorrow
Lights out in London
Hold on tight until the end
God knows when I’m coming on my run

Heaven helps those who help themselves, that’s the way it goes
The frightening thoughts of what’s been taught, and now it shows

Lights out in London
Hold on tight until the end
Better now you know we’ll never wait until tomorrow
Lights out in London
Hold on tight until the end
God knows when I’m coming on my run

You keep coming
There is no running
Tried a thousand times
Under your feet grass is growing
It’s time we said goodbye

Lights out in London
Hold on tight until the end
Better now you know we’ll never wait until tomorrow
Lights out in London
Hold on tight until the end
God knows when I’m coming on my run


It can’t be a bad day when a UFO classic gets major American radio airplay in 2021. Cheers @houseofhair icon-external-link-12x12 .
