Thirty People Away
We heard first from you
and then in the papers
and the radio said 3pm
when all of people
crowded around at the stakes
just yards from the lake
But we heard you say
that nobody knew about
the dangers and all the stages
opened up an appalling line
of people waiting in vain
as it started to rain
we had laughed about the days
when I wouldn't say the fourth of May
and sometimes we told stories
where movies stars were old
and made up to seem like they were only seventeen
and then we'd spend a dollar for the frames
we heard that you fell down
when the flames came out
and people started to shout
that some had fallen and still lay down
their faces dark from the flames
the news had read out the names
we had laughed about the days
when I wouldn't say the fourth of May
and sometimes we told stories
where movies stars were old
and made up to seem like they were only seventeen
and then we'd spend a dollar for the frames
we had laughed about the days
when I wouldn't say the fourth of May
and sometimes we told stories
where movies stars were old
and made up to seem like they were only seventeen
and then we'd spend a dollar for the frames
