Kids are spitting on the Town Hall steps & frightening old ladies. |

I dreamt that I was living back in the mid 1980s, |
[00:23.80] |
Songs Title:last day of the miners strike |
[00:10.94] |
|
[00:25.07] |
People marching, people shouting, people wearing pastel leather. |
[00:30.74] |
The future's ours for the taking now, if we just stick together. |
[00:42.41] |
And I said |
[00:44.15] |
"Hey, lay your burden down, |
[00:51.02] |
Seems the last day of the miners' strike |
[00:54.32] |
Was the Magna Carta in this part of town". |
[01:04.99] |
Well my body sank below the ground, it became as black as night, |
[01:11.23] |
Overhead the sound of horses' hooves, people fighting for their lives. |
[01:25.90] |
Some joker in a headband was still getting chicks for free |
[01:27.96] |
And Big Brother was still watching you, back in the days of '83. |
[01:31.08] |
|
[01:37.19] |
And I said |
[01:38.81] |
"Hey, lay your burden down, |
[01:45.37] |
Seems the last day of the miners' strike |
[01:48.67] |
Was the Magna Carta in this part of town". |
[02:07.21] |
Well by 1985 I was as cold a cold could be, |
[02:12.88] |
But no-one was underground to dig me out and set me free. |
[02:20.81] |
87 socialism gave way to socialising, |
[02:22.62] |
So put your hands up in the air once more, the north is rising... |
[02:45.83] |
And I said |
[02:47.27] |
"Hey, lay your burden down, |
[02:48.39] |
Seems the last day of the miners' strike |
[02:50.57] |
Was the Magna Carta in this part of town" |
[02:59.18] |
Sing Hallelujah, sing Hallelujah, |
[03:01.74] |
|
[03:15.00] |
Don't let them fool you again, sing Hallelujah. |
[03:22.06] |
By now I'm sick & tired of just living in this hole, |
[03:48.70] |
So I took the ancient tablets, blew off the dust, |
[03:51.95] |
Swallowed them whole. |
[03:52.69] |
Oh come on, let's get together, |
[03:57.50] |
Oh come on, the past is gone, |
[04:00.68] |
Well the very first Commandment: |
[04:04.30] |
Come on, come on, |
[04:07.36] |
Let's get it on, come on let's get it on. |
[04:21.90] |
Get it on. Get it on. |
[04:35.31] |
Hey, lay your burden down, |
[05:23.80] |
Seems the last day of the miners' strike |
[05:28.79] |
Was the Magna Carta in this part of town. |
