The Dreadnoughts - The Vicar of Barrington Mill lyrics
[The Dreadnoughts - The Vicar of Barrington Mill lyrics]
And climbs up the hill, climbs up the hill
Ascends to the pulpit and
Clears out his throat
The Vicar of Barrington Mill
Here's where he watched the parading
The fine and the bold and the true
Here's where he sent a young maiden
To give a white feather to you
It sold revelations, twenty one
Bitter and shrill, bitter and shrill
They all turn and look as
You stare at your feet
The Vicar of Barrington Mill
Here's where he'll dance on the treetops
Here's where he'll butter his bread
Here's where he'll stare at the raindrops
As the shells pour down on your head
And when the war's done
And his heroes lie dead silent and still
Silent and still
He'll toddle off safely and die in his bed
The Vicar of Barrington Mill
