Pretty topical it seems. Not sure about the second line but here goes:

Blackshirts and church clowns are marching in England
Contorted faces like slime (?) play gods
Young man alone flying paper to Heaven
One final attempt to take the sword from the stone
Paper to Heaven, paper to Heaven
Young man alone, young man alone

In the ashes of greatness the trustees of terror
Seek to wage war in places of peace
Young man alone flying paper to Heaven
A banner for all that we choose to ignore
Paper to Heaven, Young man alone, etc.

In the valley below the chimes of religion
Preaching to greed instead of your soul
Young man alone flying paper to Heaven
All those around him imprisoned in stone
Paper to Heaven, Young man alone, etc

Albion's last sunset trending to Westward
While statesmen and soldiers play endless war games
Young Arthur alone flying paper to Heaven
Watching the sword locked fast in the stone
Paper to Heaven, etc.

nice to hear someone interested in Dave Walters. I saw him in Blackpool 1976 - plaing a Fylde guitar.
