Skyclad - The Truth Famine слова песни
A red letter day for our nowhere industrial townA minister`s heading this way - he`s closing us downBut what of my daughter - and what of my sonJust how will they live when the factory`s gone?Election day promises now null and voidThey`ll never rest `til we`re all unemployedUB40`s a book that you`ll find very hard to put downThe dormant machinery screams - taunting the skiesGhosts of the Halcyon dream sustaining our livesNo job for my daughter - no job for my sonHow can I forgive them for what they have done?New statesmen composing the lies for tomorrow`s front pageWhat pays for the blunders they make - it`s the working mans wage.Election day promises now null and voidThey`ll never rest `til we`re all unemployedUB40`s a book that you`ll find very hard to put downThey`ve issued us all with free rose tinted glassesJob training schemes - leisure management classesNo news is good when you live on the wrong side of town.The nadir of despair we have sunk to is easy to gaugeOur children grow thinner and ever more bitter with age.From Newcastle`s shipyards to Nottingham`s pitsThey strip down our country and sell it in bitsElection day promises seemingly now null and voidWhile microchip minds keep the industry grindingWe all hunt for jobs that we`ve no chance of findingNo change in the everyday lives of the mass unemployed.A red letter day for our nowhere industrial townA minister`s heading this way - he`s closing us downBut what of my daughter - and what of my sonJust how will they live when the factory`s gone?Election day promises now null and voidThey`ll never rest `til we`re all unemployedUB40`s a book that you`ll find very hard to put downThey`ve issued us all with free rose tinted glassesJob training schemes - leisure management classesNo news is good when you live on the wrong side of town.
