They Think It's All Over, (Well Is It Now?)
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Awake, the splendour falls,
Wont't you wake come see the citadels of Albion,
Heroes come from the playint fields of England,
Twin Towers of strength and legacy?
'Selling Englad by the pound'
Flogging the wheels off to make it go'round.
First the factory then the plough
"They think it's all over." Well is it now?
At the interval the substitutes were made
But behind the scenes the winning moves was played
Save us all from such dewy-eyed remembrances
'66 and all of tha vainglory.
Goods they come from factories out in Indonesia
As Goliath strikes the irony.
What use for these trifles, the cultural icons?
Brush them aside (brush them aside).
Who needs such theatre,
A 'Venue for Legends' and national pride?
"Selling Englad by the pound'
Flogging the wheels off to make it go'round.
First the factory then the plough
"They think it's all over." Well is it now?
At some interval the substitutes were made
But behind the scenes the winning moves was played
"Selling Englad by the pound'
Flogging the wheels off to make it go'round.
First the factory then the plough
"They think it's all over." Well is it now?
Toss a coin upon the ground,
Either way up, we're on the way down
