Murder in the Sky Songtext / Lyric

Time was running out for all on board

Soaring up through the shadows of night

High above the clouds the engines roared

This would be their final flight



The Russians have shot down a plane on its way to Korea

Two hundred and sixty-nine innocent victims have died



Murder in the skies

Came without a warning

Murder in the skies

Black September morning

Murder in the skies



Time was running out for everyone

Flying over the sea of Japan

None would live to see the rising sun

Death was following close at hand



The Russians have shot down a plane on its way to Korea

Two hundred and sixty-nine innocent victims have died






Murder in the skies

Came without a warning

Murder in the skies

Black September morning



Murder in the skies

Came without a warning

Murder in the skies

Black September morning



Murder in the skies

Came without a warning

Murder in the skies

Black September morning



Murder in the skies

Came without a warning

Murder in the skies

Black September morning



Murder in the skies, murder in the skies

Murder in the skies

Murder, murder in the skies

Murder in the skies
