the danger of Brexit is that the tories would be doing it so becoming the next US state was definitely on the cards in practice if not in name Some might say that ship sailed long ago, CJ - I'm inclined to agree with them... [url=
Beneath the old iron bridges, across the Victorian parks And all the frightened people running home before dark Past the Saturday morning cinema that lies crumbling to the ground And the piss stinking shopping center in the new side of town I've come to smell the seasons change and watch the city As the sun goes down again Here comes another winter of long shadows and high hopes Here comes another winter waitin' for utopia Waitin' for hell to freeze over This is the land where nothing changes The land of red buses and blue blooded babies This is the place, where pensioners are raped And the hearts are being cut from the welfare state Let the poor drink the milk while the rich eat the honey Let the bums count their blessings while they count the money So many people can't express what's on their minds Nobody knows them and nobody ever will Until their backs are broken and their dreams are stolen And they can't get what they want then they're gonna get angry Well it ain't written in the papers, but it's written on the walls The way this country is divided to fall So the cranes are moving on the skyline Trying to knock down this town But the stains on the heartland, can never be removed From this country that's sick, sad, and confused Here comes another winter of long shadows and high hopes Here comes another winter waitin' for utopia Waitin' for hell to freeze over The ammunition's being passed and the lords been praised But the wars on the televisions will never be explained All the bankers gettin' sweaty beneath their white collars As the pound in our pocket turns into a dollar This is the 51st state of the U.S.A. This is the 51st state of the U.S.A. This is the 51st state of the U.S.A. [url=
Look outa your windows, watch the skies Read all the instructions with bright blue eyes We're W.A.S.P.'s, yeah proud American sons We know how da clean our teeth And how da strip down a gun 'Cause we're the 51st state of America Yeah we're the 51st state of America This is the 51st state of America Our star-spangled Union Jack flutters so proud Over the dancin' heads of the merry patriotic crowd Yeah, tip your hat to the Yankee conquerors We got no reds under the bed with guns under our pillows We're the 51st state of America Yeah we're the 51st state of America This is the 51st state of America Here in the land of opportunities I watch us revel in our liberty Well, you can say what you like but it doesn't change anything 'Cause the corridors of power they're an ocean away ------------------------- Fun fact pop pickers! the harmonica player on both Heartland and NMA's original recording of Poison Street was Mark '9 Below Zero' Feltham.... ...btw, this a very silly thread
