Telegraph Poles Lyrics

There was a head on collision

At my front door today

One man died

And another man tried to stop it



There was a head on collision

At my front door today

One man died

And another man tried to stop it



I was hanging on the pole

When I saw what happened

I went to tell my ma,

But she was sleeping



I was hanging on the pole

When I saw what happened

Don't take that man away

It was not his fault



Telegraph poles are good for climbing

But don't touch the live wire

At the tip of the barrel

Telegraph poles are good for climbing

But don't touch the live wire

At the tip of the barrel



You know this means everything to me

But I'm not sure if I'll be here tomorrow

You know this means everything to me

But I'm not sure if I'll be here tomorrow



Telegraph poles are good for climbing

But don't touch the live wire

At the tip of the barrel

Telegraph poles are good for climbing

But don't touch the live wire

At the tip of the barrel



There was a head on collision

At my front door today

One man died

And another man tried to stop it
