We want change
In our lives
We don’t have the strength to do it right
No job
Just breathing
Dirty air and a dirty feeling
Housing crisis
Dead bodies in the river
The wage is getting thinner
But the fat cats getting bigger
There’s something in the water
There’s fluoride at my feet
Soggy cheesy chips
That make me too ill to eat
Pug obsession
How many likes do you have?
Student loans and mortgage and youth
That you won’t ever get back
Using automated self-service machines
Avoiding interaction with a sentient human being
"Maybe I’ll take my red passport
Plan a trip to Spain
The beauty that she was
Will never be the same"
This modern England
This is my modern England for me
We want change
In our lives
We don’t have the strength to do it right
No job
Just breathing
Dirty air and a dirty feeling
Social media
Apps to change my face
Ordering food from spoons
Without leaving my own place
Estranged family
Pizza for my dinner
Sit down with the television
And see who’s now the real winner
Indie music
All the bands sound the same
The lyrics say I love you
But the message stays the same
A Uni degree
I’m a bachelor of my arts
But yet I’m still young and working
For a man without a heart
"Maybe I’ll take my red passport
Plan a trip to Spain
The beauty that she was
Will never stay the same
Look at all the screens
Done damage to my brain
The beauty that I was
Will never be the same"
No more ex
And no more stalking
Getting up so early
To see who’s checked your story
No more drinking
And no more drugs
Just love just love
And all those hugs
Cos I don’t wanna get in no more fights
We just wanna go and see the sights
No more job
And no more breathing
Dirty air
Old England’s bleeding
This is modern England
This is modern England for me
This is modern England
Oh my, oh my, oh how she bleeds.
