Night Of The Hawks (stonehenge) Lyrics - Mighty Hawkwind Classics 1980-1985 - Hawkwind

Night Of The Hawks 

In all official circles 

Across this big wide world 

Between the radio stations 

A coded message heard 

No one knew the meaning 

All our efforts seem to fail 

But if they catch you listening 

Then they'll lock you up in jail 

So we found ourselves a place we did not know 

Tension in the air and a strange earthly glow 

Then amidst the noise of a thousand people's talk 

There came a cry "It's The Night of The Hawk!"

The wind was raging, and the stars were black 

We all knew there was no turning back 

The gates of Hell stared in our face 

Nowhere to hide in this wasted space 

Night of The Hawk! 

Night of The Hawk! 

Night of The Hawk! 

Night of The Hawk! 

The curious folk who chanced to stray across this downland way 

Heard the music blast apart 

The games that politicians start 

On English land the people dance 

Like moths caught in a lamp 

Where tribes of wanton peacocks strut 

All waiting to encamp 

Photos 

So we found ourselves a place we did not know 

Tension in the air and a strange earthly glow 

Then amidst the noise of a thousand people's talk 

There came a cry "It's The Night of The Hawk! 

The wind was raging, and the stars were black 

We all knew there was no turning back 

The gates of Hell stared in our face 

Nowhere to hide in this wasted space 

Night of The Hawk! 

Night of The Hawk! 

Night of The Hawk! 

Night of The Hawk! 

The wind was raging, and the stars were black 

We all knew there was no turning back 

The gates of Hell stared in our face 

Nowhere to hide in this wasted space 

Night of The Hawk! 

Night of The Hawk! 

Night of The Hawk! 

Night of The Hawk!
