honourable purpose

    all that will matter is that you get through
    until the clock rings each still gets to dream
    it seems most wrong that all the sky is blue

    someone will note the colour in the flue
    and send you messages of their esteem
    all that will matter is that you get through

    a signal comes for those who're in the crew
    and understand what's in the tightest beam
    it seems most wrong that all the sky is blue

    it will be over once you tie your shoe
    that is the upshot of some clever scheme
    all that will matter is that you get through

    it's not your job to cook somebody's stew
    or worry about what floats down the stream
    it seems most wrong that all the sky is blue

    our single duty is to watch the new
    starlight and then to share in the fresh cream
    all that will matter is that you get through
    it seems most wrong that all the sky is blue
