The Ballad Of Peter Pumpkinhead - XTC

"Silencian a los que dicen la verdad,
pero la verdad no muere y es incontenible
se abre paso como el sol entre las nubes..."

Peter Pumpkinhead came to town
Spreading wisdom and cash around
Fed the starving and housed the poor
Showed the Vatican what gold's for


But he made too many enemies
Of the people who would keep us on our knees

Hooray for Peter Pumpkin!

Who'll pray for Peter Pumpkinhead?

Oh, my...!


Peter Pumpkinhead pulled them all
Emptied churches and shopping malls
Where he spoke, it would raise the roof
Peter Pumpkinhead told the truth


(Chorus)


Peter Pumpkinhead put to shame
Governments who would slur his name
Plots and sex scandals failed outright
Peter merely said: Any kind of love is alright


(Chorus)


Peter Pumpkinhead was too good
Had him nailed to a chunk of wood
He died grinning on live TV
Hanging there he looked a lot like you... and an awful lot like me!


(Chorus)


Hooray for Peter Pumpkin!
Who'll pray for Peter Pumpkin?
Hooray for Peter Pumpkinhead!

Oh my...!
Oh my...!

Oh, don't it make you wanna cry on?
