Greed and Peasant Land Lyrics
I drag my butt across the town
Past empty mills and sad-fashion clowns
I walk this land, of dope and Tory
That would be funny if it wasn’t so true
40 million aspirins dissolve in water
50 million TVs show sit-coms
A nation peering behind net curtains
To damn polite to make a fuss
When all the wealth in the world today
Can’t buy a heart or a shining soul
But it could feed and house every human
Oh why don’t we get it, get it, get it, get it done
Hospitals and homes fall like dominoes
What’s so great about that people are dying to know
I walk this greed and peasant land
With my heart screaming vengeance at the evil going on
Blue lies are smeared over
The white-washed cliffs of Dover
I just want justice
I just want justice
‘Cause ‘it’s not British’ ‘It’s not cricket’
Come on old chap it’s just not fair
Well all the wealth in the world today
Can’t buy a heart or a shining soul
But it could feed and house every human being
Get it, get it, get it, get it done (get it done)
Don’t be a blighter
(Saying ‘we’ll get it done’) X8
Past empty mills and sad-fashion clowns
I walk this land, of dope and Tory
That would be funny if it wasn’t so true
50 million TVs show sit-coms
A nation peering behind net curtains
To damn polite to make a fuss
Can’t buy a heart or a shining soul
But it could feed and house every human
Oh why don’t we get it, get it, get it, get it done
What’s so great about that people are dying to know
I walk this greed and peasant land
With my heart screaming vengeance at the evil going on
The white-washed cliffs of Dover
I just want justice
I just want justice
‘Cause ‘it’s not British’ ‘It’s not cricket’
Come on old chap it’s just not fair
Can’t buy a heart or a shining soul
But it could feed and house every human being
Get it, get it, get it, get it done (get it done)
(Saying ‘we’ll get it done’) X8
