Lyrics

First time l saw the Baron's claw Heads poking round the terrace door Made of silver and gold and bits of iron ore Well we all said 'Cor' They had just installed the first phone In the office of the Baron's home & Silhouetted by the fire we saw - The phone in the claw And all the children cried (with joy) And they'd run alongside when the big old car sped by - Steered by the Baron's claw.. Next time I saw the Baron's claw Slashing its way through the grocers door Hе saved the family from the firе's roar Staggered into the street.. Skin peeled off on the street The Baron stayed on his feet Holding aloft his claw Awaiting the villagers applause The day the Baron died.. Children ran alongside The big black car went by Carrying the Baron's claw And as we grow old Don't we forget what we're told So we forget what we know About the Baron's claw And as we grow old We all forget what we're told We all forget what we know About the Baron's claw Remembering the Baron's claw He had it made after the first great war Gold and Silver and bits of Iron Ore The Baron's Claw
