[Intro]
F#m E
F#m E
[Verse 1]
F#mEnjoy it while it lasts because soon it will be different
EPernicious playgrounds and new age cultism
F#mOutbreaks of optimism in care homes of England
EThe famous goodwill dumped in your fly tips so...
[Chorus]
F#mGo raise your idols
Pull them out the marshes
EGo give them sanctuary
And put them in your new builds
Because F#meverything is now a live stream
And the noise is rising
ECurtain twitchers can take out their sunscreen
[Post-Chorus]
It F#mlooks like it's come to Erest
F#m E
[Verse 2]
F#mThe truce of twilight the echoes of the horned ooser
EIn a Southend caravan park from shore to pierhead
The tF#mwelve that follow on they are camping on the cliff top
EThey not dreaming just looking to midnight
[Chorus]
F#mGo fill your pockets now
With tomorrow's landfill
EThe Lions and Unicorns
Are sleeping out in shop doors
F#mOutside dreamland
Glassy eyed demography
EThe smell of cut grass
The swallows are returning
[Post-Chorus]
And it F#mlooks like they've come to Erest
[Verse 3]
ABring me my shell box and my subEmachine gun
Because you F#mcan't get over anything quite like Ethis
Where the Awater is darker than the mirror Eof the sky
And F#mDemis Roussos playing "Forever" on the waterEslide
[Outro]
ConF#mscripted into ranks
Look what we have done
The Efeckless and the lazy
Look what we've become
ChiF#mcken collector man, hey
Look what we have done
EThe fortune teller she sits with the starlings
Look what we've become
Oh the F#mmass elopers turn to exhale
Look what we have done
In the Edance schools of England, hey
Look what we've become
In the F#mdance schools of England
Look what we have done
In the Edance schools of England
F#m E (begin fade out)
F#m E
