Black Boys On Mopeds |
Margareth Thatcher on TV |
Shocked by the deaths that took place in Beijing |
It seems strange that she should be offended |
The same orders are given by her |
I’ve said this before now |
You said I was childish and you’ll say it now |
«Remember what I told you |
If they hated me they will hate you» |
England’s not the mythical land of Madame George and roses |
It’s the home of police who kill black boys on mopeds |
And I love my boy and that’s why I’m leaving |
I don’t want him to be aware that there’s |
Any such thing as grieving |
Young mother down at Smithfield |
5 am, looking for food for her kids |
In her arms she holds three cold babies |
And the first word that they learned was «please» |
These are dangerous days |
To say what you feel is to dig your own grave |
«Remember what I told you |
If you were of the world they would love you» |
England’s not the mythical land of Madame George and roses |
It’s the home of police who kill blacks boys on mopeds |
And I love my boy and that’s why I’m leaving |
I don’t want him to be aware that there’s |
Any such thing as grieving. |
