'CHILD UPON A WALL' by Derek Davies

Banksy sprayed the child upon a wall,
when all around right there black snow did fall.
Port Talbots pride in place,
that joy, that smiling face,
Banksy sprayed the child upon a wall.

One cold December morn,
Seasons Greetings there was born,
Taibachs little gem upon a wall.
A statement standing free,
for all the world to see,
that gift, that picture bleak, that winters call.

Chorus....
Banksy sprayed the child upon a wall,
when all around right there black snow did fall.
Port Talbots pride in place,
that joy, that smiling face,
Banksy sprayed the child upon a wall.

The innocence of that child,
that message says it all,
This town,this place,will never fall
Standing strong together
United now forever
Port Talbots child upon a wall.

Chorus...
Banksy sprayed the child upon a wall,
when all around right there black snow did fall.
Port Talbots pride in place,
that joy, that smiling face,
Banksy sprayed the child upon a wall.

Port Talbots street art Banksy speaks of home,
a place where local legends roam,
that message standing tall
that face, that cold black snow,
“Long live the child upon a wall"!

Chorus...
Banksy sprayed the child upon a wall,
when all around right there black snow did fall.
Port Talbots pride in place,
that joy, that smiling face,
Banksy sprayed the child upon a wall.
