Magnum had a few great songs, and clearly underrated. But this song is not only underrated, it's completely beyond me it's not on most people's radar. I count this one as one of those truly great epic rock classics....

Probably one of the best and most awesome (and terrific) song in history.

I agree. This song is ...well it just is.

Wings of Heaven was a great album. My dad used to play it in the car when I was a kid. These guys never got the success they deserved.

My dad used to play rock art all the time and I’ve never looked back, they deserve so much more recognition, their songs have actually meaning and tell stories, amazing band!

My dad was the biggest magnum fan. Took us to concerts and stuff. Loved the band. Back in 2013 i bought "the mystery of time" by avantasia. I heard it the first time in my car, and was like "thats bob fkin catley, isnt it?". Drove to my dads place after work and showed it to him. New Avantasia fan was born. Incredible what great and unique of a singer bob catley is. Even in higher age. Even if he can barely perform more than 3-4 songs at this point. He is honest about it and every bit he does is great :)

One of the greatest ever British bands. So underatted and writers of such great songs. You will find more great guitar riffs on a single Magnum record than twenty other bands put together. Love this song.

One of the most underestimated bands. Bob Catley’s vocals are amazing. The lyrics for the this song should be read when listening to this. I was actually at this concert and have loved this band since the 80s

I was there. They were just magnificent. I thought they would be a household name within a year, within 2 years Polydor dropped them. Can't fathom how Clarkin and Catley are not on the same plane as Plant and Paige. Their last album. Shadow Garden is as good as anything.

After all these years they are still going strong as ever and Bob's voice are still as clear as it has ever been...absolutely amazing!!! Will always be a Magnum fan as long as there is breath in my lungs and until they bury me! Rock on guys!!!

It was the day that war broke out Everyone seemed excited While young men boasted And talked of great times Dark clouds gathered On the Maginot line Sisters and fathers Mothers and sons All said goodbye It seemed so much fun We'll be finished by Christmas Back home by the fire Perish the distance The bombs and the wire Don't wake the lion Don't wake the lion Don't wake the lion There's a firework show tonight Everyone's been invited There's mud on faces With frightened white eyes And some won't make it Through the thunderous noise Powerful and angry Answer the guns All through the night Relief never comes It's a criminal deception Sets man against man Indicting reflection A devious plan Don't wake the lion Don't wake the lion Don't wake the lion Father, don't you leave me Mother, don't go Can't live without you No, don't go, don't go Hear what they're saying Come the freeze You'd better hold on tight And while you're praying On your knees Prepare to stand and fight Someone keeps saying It's written in a book So keep yourself in line But you're betraying With every nervous look That now it's killing time And from the morning till the night We try They said it all would turn out right But they lied Yes, they lied Too old to die young Too big to cry Too old to die young To say goodbye Too old to die young Too big to cry, mama Too old to die young To say goodbye Above the raging Evening sky Will never be the same While necks are straining Those hidden eyes Shoot out another flame And from the morning till the night We try They said it all would turn out right But they lied Yes, they lied, lied Too old to die young Too big to cry Too old to die young To say goodbye Too old to die young Too big to cry, mama Too old to die young To say goodbye No, don't you ever Never, never Never, never Don't you Don't you Don't you ever never, never go While the angels sleep tonight Some of us will be hoping That someone understands Who started this fight Thrown down on foreign shores So far out of sight Don't wake the lion, no Don't wake the lion It was the day that war broke out Everyone seemed excited While young men boasted And talked of great times Dark clouds gathered It was a change for all time Sisters and fathers Mothers and sons All said goodbye It seemed so much fun We'll be finished by Christmas Back home by the fire Perish the distance The bombs and the wire Don't wake the lion No, no, no, don't wake the lion Don't wake the lion No, don't you wake the lion

I met Micky Barker the other week. He's a top bloke! He now runs a music studio in Birmingham UK. I recorded there. Didn't realise just how big Magnum were/are. Watching Mick in action here is great. He's such a chilled out friendly dude! He must have been knackered doing this track though!

Hi, I used to play bass for a band called Walk The Wire and we played support to Magnum on some dates in the UK when they were touring the Rock Art album. What a great band those guys are, very friendly, helpful and courteous to us. Great days indeed! If you like this song why not check out WTW`s song `Crossfire`.......enjoy!
