[00:14.740] Across the western world the lights are going down
[00:21.340] The gypsy armies of the evening
[00:27.350] Have lit their fires across the nether side of town
[00:33.850] They will not pass this way again
[00:42.280] So here in the night
[00:46.070] Leave your home it's time for running
[00:48.600] Out of the light
[00:52.340] I see the hosts of Mohammed coming
[00:57.260]
[01:11.450] The Holy Sister bars her doors against the East
[01:17.560] Her house has stood too long divided
[01:23.570] The uninvited guests are breaking up the feast
[01:30.050] She may not bid them leave again
[01:38.440] So here in the night
[01:42.140] Leave your home it's time for running
[01:44.760] Out of the light
[01:48.090] I see the hosts of Mohammed coming
[01:51.020]
[02:08.160] I dreamed I stood like this before
[02:12.240] And I'm sure the words that I heard then
[02:15.630] Were much the same
[02:20.490] It's just an old Greek tragedy they're acting here
[02:26.050] Held over by popular acclaim
[03:18.280] So here in the night
[03:22.030] Leave your home it's time for running
[03:24.300] Out of the light
[03:27.720] I see the hosts of Mohammed coming
