Stop all the clocks, cut off the telephone,
Prevent the dog from barking with a juicy bone,
Silence the pianos and with muffled [bad word] Bring out the coffin, let the [bad word] 
Let aeroplanes circle moaning overhead
Scribbling on the sky the message He Is Dead,
Put crêpe bows round the white necks of the public

Let the traffic policemen wear black cotton gloves.
He was my North, my South, my East and West,
My working week and my Sunday rest,
My noon, my midnight, my talk, my song;

Pack up the moon and dismantle the sun;
Pour away the ocean and sweep up the wood.
For nothing now can [bad word] to any good.

My noon, my midnight, my talk, my song;
I thought that love would last for ever
