Born In The U.k. Lyrics


Then you see it happen again
The world turned over
Wouldn't it be something to live?
Your life on Mars
Or at least demanding
Of some kind of masqueradeI never, never ever believed
In things uncertain
Hanging 'round the corner
Just when did you start doing time?
In the case of I, my, me and mine
October 1969Where were you in '76?
The long hot summer
You wanna be a rebel
Then turn your hose pipes on
With two years to wait
For the sound of Jilted JohnVirginia Wade was winning our hearts
She made us want to live
Vicious and his brothers

Were trying to set us free
But much more than this to you and me
This was the Silver JubileeWe made something out of nothing
A sense of loathing and belongingSome of us are gonna be rich
With the Iron Lady
Lennon's gone already
Let's post the boys to war
Oh, mother, what are you worrying for?
It's somewhere he's not been beforeThen you see the Union Jack
And it means nothing
But somehow you know
That you will find your own way
It's a small reminder every day
That I was born in the U.K.

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Badly Drawn Boy is an independent musician, born Damon Gough October 2, 1969 in Dunstable, Bedfordshire, although the family returned to Bolton, Lancashire before Gough reached the age of one. Gough chose his stage name from a character that appeared in the cartoon show "Sam and His Magic Ball" which he saw on TV at a party in Trafford, Manchester in 1995. Before he thought of using this name he made some 'business cards', each one unique, with a printed picture of a drawing by his nephew, and a small collage by Gough.
