Peace in the Valley Once Again

When they close down the last shopping mall
Crickets will sing through crumbling walls
Termites will eat through the doors
As rabbits hop round the shop floors

Empty shelves will swarm with bees
Cash machines will sprout weeds
Lizards will crawl across the parking lot
As birds fly around empty shops
There will be peace in the valley once again

Wild flowers will grow up the mannequins
Painting them with a leafy skin
Their plastic eyes will fall to the floor
To be gathered by wild boar

Mirrors will crack in half
As wild horses gallop past
Wild doves will build their nests
On the escalator steps
There will be peace in the valley once again
