The Darkness – Sutton Hoo lyrics

We have stumbled upon
A ghost town in the East
There is no sign of life
No sign of the deceased?
Evidence of a ship
With sails and oars intact
No human remains
No theory and no fact
Where to, if they fled?
Where'd they die if they're dead?

Was it famine, was it war?
What did the people leave the settlement for?
Sutton Hoo can unlock these mysteries
Was it marooned or was it moored?
Did the townsfolk put the sailors to the sword?
Sutton Hoo can unlock these mysteries
Ooh ooh ooh
Oh Sutton Hoo

A celestial craft
Appeared in the sky
All the witnesses fell
Down to their knees and cried
Hundreds of years
Before the age of steam
The townsfolk were fixed
In its tractor beam
Blinding light in their eyes
As they helplessly rise

Then an aperture appeared
In the hull, as the floating Saxons neared
Sutton Hoo can unlock these mysteries
Lizard men tearing at their robes
Other lizard men polishing their probes
Sutton Hoo can unlock these mysteries
Ooh ooh ooh
Oh Sutton Hoo

No more pain and no more fear
It's a different atmosphere
Sutton Hoo can unlock these mysteries
Leave behind the human race
As we're travelling through space
Sutton Hoo can unlock these mysteries
Ooh ooh ooh
Oh Sutton Hoo
