Struck Down

[Verse 1]

Struck down by a vision of beauty

Said I was struck down by a long-legged archer

Oh, the city was hot, but my blood ran cold

Oh, the city went dark, keep calm and carry on

I was a young man, only 19 years old

Said I was a young man so very far away from home

Ah, she got me, struck down, right through the heart, struck down

Ah, she shot me, struck down, right through the heart, struck down

[Chorus]

Keep calm and carry on

Reefer madness quiets the falling bomb

[Verse 2]

I want to be an old man, damn you, von Braun

I want to be an old man, damn you, von Braun

I've been laid low by a blinding light

Oh, I've been torn asunder by the banshee's wail

Ah, she got me, struck down, right through the heart, struck down

Ah, she shot me, struck down, right through the heart, struck down

[Chorus]

Keep calm and carry on

Reefer madness quiets the falling bomb

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]

I was a young man, only 19 years old

I was a very young man so far away from home

I was imprisoned by a vision of beauty

I was struck down by the long-legged archer

[Chorus]

Keep calm and carry on

Reefer madness quiets the falling bomb

Keep calm and carry on

Reefer madness quiets the falling bomb

Keep calm and carry on

Reefer madness quiets the falling bomb
