Jon Boden - All the Stars Are Coming out Tonight Lyrics

Though the fog is clinging to the wasteland where the broken factories lie

And the clouds are lined up like an army in a coronation sky

All the stars are coming out tonight

Though the moon is shrouded by the yellow fumes that cover it from sight

And the mist is writhing in the quarter light and frost begins to bite

All the stars are coming out tonight



See Cassiopeia pass –

Orion, Jupiter and Mars and

All the stars are coming out tonight





When the northern skies ignite

I’ll be blinded by the light

Orion, Jupiter and Mars and

All the stars are coming out tonight



Though the wind is howling and the

the warning curfew bells begin to chime

Though the gloom is rising and the Sages promise rain at any time

All the tribes are coming out tonight



Lock your doors and draw your curtains people of the law abiding kind

Come you vagabonds and platinum blondes come rise, come seek and you shall find

All the tribes are coming out tonight



Down to where the darkness slides, where mud and shadow circumscribes

For all the tribes are coming out tonight



When the northern skies ignite

I’ll be blinded by the light

Orion, Jupiter and Mars and

All the stars are coming out tonight
