English - Nerina Pallot
Oh you'd love to be English
And all you think it is
The Queen and her Guards taking tea
But the hatred and the bigotry won't go away
No Blacks no Irish bring no dogs
The shame of being something other than the same as everyone else
Well I don't want to be like you
But my skin is so pale my manner so fine
You think that I am just like you
And you're frightened to travel
'Till you make the world look just the same as home
While your kids buy guns and shoot their friends
And die alone
No mind no judgment lets you take the blame
Send those bloody strangers back from where they came
Does that mean me too
Or my Mother in her small red coat
Stepping off the boat
Doing jobs you're too d**n lazy to
All this greatness gone to waste
You hide your eyes and turn your face and
Nothing ever changes no
Nothing ever changes
So keep your bulldogs
Keep your flags
Cause talk is cheap and
Time will drag and
Nothing ever changes no
Nothing ever changes
I will always be English
And all I hope it is
These shores that I will claim as my own
This broken down Jerusalem
Is still my home编辑于2023/12/28更新
