"SILENT RUNNING"
Composed by:
B.A. ROBERTSON and MICHAEL RUTHERFORD
Recorded by:
MIKE AND THE MECHANICS
VERSE # 01:
Take the children and yourself,
And hide out in the cellar.
By now, the fighting
Will be close at hand.
Don't believe the Church and State
And everything they tell you.
Believe in me.
I'm with the High Command.
CHORUS:
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me running?
Can you hear me running?
Can you see me calling you?
VERSE # 02:
There's a gun and ammunition
Just inside the doorway.
Use it only in emergency.
Better you should pray to God,
The Father, Son, and Spirit
To guide you
And protect you all for me.
VERSE # 03:
Swear allegiance to the flag,
Whatever flag they offer,
But conceal
What you really feel.
Teach the children quietly,
For someday, sons and daughters
Will rise up
And fight where we stood still.

Hi John:
That was a nice rendition, I like that song too, although I never saw the movie.
I remember you from the Prussian Blue blog, back when it was active.
Hope you're doing well.
Those lyrics are appropriate....
