Faithless - Hope &; Glory songtekst
Je score:
When I arrive eyes wide fired up Tried not to slide and let the side down Now the plane's on the ground I'll find a good profession It's 1957 I've come to the motherland to make a home to put my bed in This weather does my head in Some people are less than kind I wish Mama was here so I could unwind But I'm supposed to be the good news So I lace up these hard black shoes And look - more work These streets were never paved with gold They simply make my feet hurt They just make my feet hurt Just a little money in my pocket and a little bit left for those I love To have enough food on my table and a little bit more for those who call And in this land of hope and glory You'd think there's enough for us all You'd think there's enough for us all When I arrive eyes wide petrified Tried not to cry and let the side down Now the plane's on the ground It's 20 years later Mama's in the arrival lounge I take a few seconds to kiss her Then look around at what's happened to my home town What's going on But papa doesn't look too strong Rush home in a cab, windows up Now I hear dad cough: "We gotta get in before they switch the lights and water off for the night" I have to get to know the guard dogs Cause they bite Progress just passed us by, to the right Just a little money in my pocket and a little bit left for those I love to have enough food on my table and a little bit more for those who call and in this land of hope and glory you'd think there's enough for us all you'd think there's enough for us all Just a little money in my pocket and a little bit left for those I love to have enough food on my table and a little bit more for those who call and in this land of hope and glory you'd think there's enough for us all you'd think there's enough for us all [John Reid: The public needs to know that there may be other people out there who may be planning to attack against the United Kingdom. That is why there're a number of other security operations underway. There is still a very serious threat of an attack. The threat level is at severe, indicating the high likelyhood of an attempted terrorist attack at some stage.]
