Analysis of You did that
Valiantstar 1961 (Sydney)
Lay back listening to the radio
Topic:
Bindi eye
You did that!
The bindies are gone.
Sing a new song
Another comes along
His glory goes on, and on, and on...
There is no end.
And He shares His glory with his friends
He is the story
Beware of the fake
He's alive and active
That cunning snake..
Who gets all the glory?
The idols of silver
The idols of gold
All reputations
The puff and the blow
All will be tested
Fire refines
Then will be gathered
All that are mine.
