The glimmer of the past is held so dear

there`s nothing else left for me here

We were young and withstood the knocks

we were the kings of the tower block

Smashing windows, fight all day

your no good - my mother would say

on the same side, even way back then



I`ve been kicking around this town so long

I don`t know what to do

Generation

Generation

No Mercy for you



All the buildings in my town are grey

Cold, Mean, Cruel - No future, No Way

With its own justice and rules within

walls this filthy have no sin

The police don`t come round here no more

protect the rich and fuck the poor

to old to cry, to young to know why

I justify this last goodbye
