The Silver Cloud's Dark Lining Lyrics - Skyclad

Sailing of the century - a human life raft floating 

the jaws of the void approaching - growing closer by the hour 

Played lottery with destiny - could not believe you'd lose 

Collect your one-way ticket for "the Good Ship Earth's" last cruise 

So play today 

go make your hay beneath a warm sun shining 

But bear in mind one day you'll find the silver cloud's dark lining 

Poor general intelligence - all that is rank promoted 

Distended bellies bloated - gorged on candy-coated lies 

Though honest as the day is long - dark nights are drawing in 

yet for one grow tired of this - a devil sick of sin

So play today 

go make your hay beneath a warm sun shining 

But bear in mind one day you'll find the silver cloud's dark lining 

Stand in line and pay your dime, to watch Atlantis rising 

When do you'll see right through to the silver cloud's dark lining 

Oblivion comes calling - expel your last breath praying 

Hear the hounds of Hades baying - find there's nowhere left ot run 

Across the fence midst greener grass a serpent winks his eye 

for each of us he's baked a slice of home made apple-pie! 

So play today 

go make your hay beneath a warm sun shining 

But bear in mind one day you'll find the silver cloud's dark lining 

Played lottery with destiny - could not believe you'd lose 

Collect your one-way ticket for "the Good Ship Earth's" last cruise
