Lyrics

It was a quiet afternoon
Lazily lying in my chair
Radio played a mellow tune
There was no danger in the air

But then the changes came
The white birds all flew up
From then on nothing was the same
I was treated with round-up, with round-up

A quiet afternoon on which
So many flowers died
Did your heels always itch?
Why did you run and hide

And when the changes came
The white birds all flew up
From then on nothing was the same
After we broke up, we broke up

No more quite afternoons
My treasure is buried deep
Radio plays darker tunes
I am in a twilight sleep

And with the changes came
Nights lit by the bright moon
We have lost, it’s such a shame,
Our quiet afternoon,
Our quiet afternoon
