All the Stars Are Coming Out Tonight Songtext
von Jon Boden

Though the fog is clinging to the wasteland
Where the broken factories lie
And the clouds are lined up like an army in a coronation sky
All the stars are coming out tonight

Though the moon is shrouded
By the yellow fumes that cover it from sight
And the mist is writhing in the quarter light and frost begins to bite
All the stars are coming out tonight

See Cassiopeia pass –
Orion, Jupiter and Mars and
All the stars are coming out tonight

When the northern skies ignite
I′ll be blinded by the light
Orion, Jupiter and Mars and
All the stars are coming out tonight


Though the wind is howling and the warning curfew bells begin to chime
Though the gloom is rising and the Sages promise rain at any time
All the tribes are coming out tonight

Lock your doors and draw your curtains people of the law abiding kind
Come you vagabonds and platinum blondes come rise,
Come seek and you shall find
All the tribes are coming out tonight

Down to where the darkness slides, where mud and shadow circumscribes
For all the tribes are coming out tonight

When the northern skies ignite
I'll be blinded by the light
Orion, Jupiter and Mars and
All the stars are coming out tonight

When the northern skies ignite
I′ll be blinded by the light
Orion, Jupiter and Mars and
All the stars are coming out tonight


Orion, Jupiter and Mars and
All the stars are coming out tonight
Orion, Jupiter and Mars and
All the stars are coming out tonight
