Silver Kettle - Al Stewart[00:00:00]

And in the last days of the world of plastic records[00:00:04]

He takes the car into town[00:00:15]

He hears the voices of salvation through the static[00:00:19]

Just turns the volume down[00:00:28]

A chain link fence round a boarded up arcade[00:00:31]

Towers of glass that petroleum has made[00:00:41]

But he wouldn’t have been born[00:00:46]

At any other moment in the world[00:00:48]

And in the morning he will hear the silver kettle[00:00:53]

Calling him out of his sleep[00:01:06]

The world outside goes by in plastic and in metal[00:01:10]

He’s got his secrets to keep[00:01:19]

The daily news forms a pattern on TV[00:01:23]

Violence first then a cat stuck up a tree[00:01:32]

But he wouldn’t have been born[00:01:37]

At any other moment in this world[00:01:40]

One o’clock and the office empties out[00:01:46]

He watches as they pass[00:01:57]

Nostalgic for something intangible[00:02:01]

A time that never was[00:02:04]

There is a crack along the plaster in the kitchen[00:02:12]

It forms the shape of her face[00:02:20]

Just for a moment he will trace it with his finger[00:02:24]

One day he’ll paint her away[00:02:33]

He sees her now - she’s got a clean white shirt on[00:02:37]

She’s someone he’d just love to get the dirt on[00:02:47]

And she couldn’t have been born[00:02:51]

At any other moment in the world[00:02:53]
