| Awake, the splendour falls,
|
| Wont’t you wake come see the citadels of Albion,
|
| Heroes come from the playint fields of England,
|
| Twin Towers of strength and legacy?
|
| 'Selling Englad by the pound'
|
| Flogging the wheels off to make it go’round.
|
| First the factory then the plough
|
| «They think it’s all over."Well is it now?
|
| At the interval the substitutes were made
|
| But behind the scenes the winning moves was played
|
| Save us all from such dewy-eyed remembrances
|
| '66 and all of tha vainglory.
|
| Goods they come from factories out in Indonesia
|
| As Goliath strikes the irony.
|
| What use for these trifles, the cultural icons?
|
| Brush them aside (brush them aside).
|
| Who needs such theatre,
|
| A 'Venue for Legends' and national pride?
|
| «Selling Englad by the pound'
|
| Flogging the wheels off to make it go’round.
|
| First the factory then the plough
|
| «They think it’s all over."Well is it now?
|
| At some interval the substitutes were made
|
| But behind the scenes the winning moves was played
|
| «Selling Englad by the pound'
|
| Flogging the wheels off to make it go’round.
|
| First the factory then the plough
|
| «They think it’s all over."Well is it now?
|
| Toss a coin upon the ground,
|
| Either way up, we’re on the way down |
