A pistol shot at five o'clock

The bells of heaven ring

Tell me what you done it for

No, I won't tell you a thing

Yesterday I begged you

Before I hit the ground

All I leave behind me

Is only what I found

If you can abide it

Let the hurdy-gurdy play

Stranger ones have come by here

Before they flew away

I will not condemn you

Nor yet would I deny

I would ask the same of you

But failing will not die

Take up your china doll (Take up your china doll)

It's only fractured

Just a little nervous from the fall
