There'll be blue birds over
The white cliffs of Dover,
Tomorrow, just you wait and see.

There'll be love and laughter
And peace ever after
Tomorrow, when the world is free.

The shepherd will tend his sheep,
The valley will bloom again
And Jimmy will go to sleep,
In his own little room again.

There'll be blue birds over
The white cliffs of Dover,
Tomorrow, just you wait and see.

[SteveD]

The shepherd is obviously washing his socks by night.

[netibiza]

....and the valley is now a blooming council estate.

All this business about Jimmy and the sheep, what I want to know is where are the ruddy blue birds?
