I Wish We'd All Been Ready - The Hoppers

Life was filled with guns and war

And everyone got trampled on the floor

I wish we’d all been ready

Children died the days grew cold

A piece of bread could buy a bag of gold

I wish we’d all been ready

But there’s no time to change your mind

The Son has come and you’ve been left behind

Two men walking up a hill

One disappears one’s left standing still

I wish we’d all been ready

A man and wife asleep in bed

He hears a noise and turns his head she’s gone

I wish we’d all been ready

But there’s no time to change your mind

The Son has come and you’ve been left behind

Life was filled with guns and war

Everyone got trampled on the floor

I wish we’d all been ready

Children died the days grew cold

(Ah…)

A piece of bread could buy a bag of gold

Oh I wish we’d all been ready

But there’s no time to change your mind

The Son has come and you’ve been left behind

There’s no time to change your mind

The Son has come and you’ve been left behind

You’ve been left behind

Don’t be left…

Behind.
