Stereophonics
"Poppy Day"


She slept on an iron bed,
Lived through the war for what?
Butterflies 'round the fire smile,
Smile until she's robbed of all she's got,

I heard the innocent got shot today,
Grandma died on poppy day,
I heard the dress down get turned away,
All died, died on poppy day,

Fancy dress in a dress down town,
Happy Halloween,
Door breaks open lost man walks in,
Killing the happy scene,

I heard the innocent got shot today,
Grandma died on poppy day,
I heard the dress down get turned away,
All died, died on poppy day,

I heard the innocent got shot today,
Grandma died on poppy day,
I heard the dress down get turned away,
All died, died on poppy day,
On poppy day
