Second Coming
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Somewhere in Africa, somewhere in Rome
People are sleeping awake in their homes
Waiting for shepherds to attempt to their sheep
Their disappointments they're piled in a corner
A second co - ming will come in
A second co - ming will come in
A second co - ming will come in
A second co - ming will come in
(It will come in)
Turn on the sets and then wait for the show
Will he have blond hair and what will he know
Will he tell jokes or will he make us cry
If we write to him will he send back a reply
A second co - ming will come in
A second co - ming will come in
A second co - ming will come in
A second co - ming will come in
(It will come in)
Like everybody I wait for the day
Like everybody I'll send him away
He may be ugly and have problem hair
Even speak funny and make all the people stare
A second co - ming will come in
A second co - ming will come in
A second co - ming will come in
A second co - ming will come in
Second coming (It will come in)
Second coming (It will come in)
Second coming (It will come in)
Second coming (It will come in)
Second coming (It will come in)
Second coming (It will come in)
Second coming (It will come in)
Second coming
Second coming
Second coming
Second coming
Second coming (It It It will come in)
Second coming (It It It will come in)
Second coming (It It It will come in)
Second coming (It It It will come in)
Second coming (It It It will come in)
