Из альбома: Drop
the face of a nation was split with a smile today
as we were politely informed
of the fun and games oh yeah
there’s a ship on your sea shall we send it down?
it’s only a toy in the tub shall we sink it now?
Light up the home fires run up the flags
happy days are here again
just like the old days riches to rags
happy people don’t complain
ask your leaders for their reasons
why is blue the colour of the season
ask your father ask your mother
better still don’t breathe a word at all
the voice of a nation has spelt it out for you
it’s there on the page and the screen so it must be true
it’s perfectly simple it’s perfectly understood
three cheers for the church and the state
and the boys in the blue
