The High Llamas

The goat Looks

The High Llamas


A sudden wind cuts through the song
five hundred people can't be wrong.
this place is finished I can tell,
this place is finished they're gonna sell

Can't quite believe what i've just seen,
construction workers dressed in green
a supermarket on the hill,
the way things happen makes you feel ill

And the goat looks on 
at another one
the goat looks on at 
another one

A water still, 
a gentle breeze,
holiday people ill at ease
the councillor speaks from the past,
visiting clergy get their last

And the goat looks on
at another one
the goat looks on at 
another one

Ever this simple? 
once or twice,
someone has got to break the ice

I'll take your money, 
make it good,
take it to another neighbourhood

And the goat looks on 
at another one
and the goat looks on 
at another one
and the goat looks on 
at another one
and the goat looks on 
at another one
