Whirlpool's End Lyrics
The sun came out & hung above
over our heads but far enough to see
A bomb exploding in another town
Children choking on a poison cloud
While on the streets,where lovers once walked
Side by side in idle talk
Bullets fall like unholy rain
people change as the panic sets in -
A frightened baby by her dead mother's side
In a brutal world where there's nowhere to run, hide or cry
Now nothing feels the same way -
feels like it's changing again
Upon a street with no name
Its hard to find it again
I ran as fast as my feet could fly
Down country lanes where I took my time
Time like a hound snapping at my heels
I got past thinkingso that I could feel
Feels like a film playing in my head
And I kept rolling down green Surrey hills
In spring
Now I don't feel the same way
I feel like I'm changing again
Upon a street with no name
It's hard to find me again
The sun came out, hung above, over our heads but far enough to see
over our heads but far enough to see
Children choking on a poison cloud
While on the streets,where lovers once walked
Side by side in idle talk
Bullets fall like unholy rain
people change as the panic sets in -
A frightened baby by her dead mother's side
In a brutal world where there's nowhere to run, hide or cry
feels like it's changing again
Upon a street with no name
Its hard to find it again
Down country lanes where I took my time
Time like a hound snapping at my heels
I got past thinkingso that I could feel
Feels like a film playing in my head
And I kept rolling down green Surrey hills
In spring
I feel like I'm changing again
Upon a street with no name
It's hard to find me again

best track on Weller's best album. As a man born and bred in Surreyits also always nice to ensure the homeland gets a mention!
The descent into madness. The song speeds up as it happens and slows down as he comes out, into the Surry Hills in Spring.
Awesome song.
