Waterboys - Old England слова песни
(Mike Scott)man looks up on a yellow skyand the rain turns to rust in his eyerumours of his health are liesold England is dyinghis clothes are a dirty shade of blueand his ancient shoes worn throughhe steals from me and he lies to youold England is dyingstill he sings an empire songstill he keeps his navy strongand he sticks his flag where it ill belongsold England is dyingyou`re asking what makes me sigh nowwhat it is makes me shudder so wellI just freeze in the wind and I`mnumb from the pummelin of the snowthat falls from high in yellow skiesdown on where the well loved flag of England flieswhere homes are warm and mothers sighwhere comedians laugh and babies crywhere criminals are televised politicians fraternizejournalists are dignified and everyone is civilizedand children stare with Heroin eyesOld England!evening has fallenthe swans are singingthe last of sunday`s bells is ringingthe wind in the trees is sighingand old England is dying
