Mr. Heseltine Meets His Public Lyrics

Ladies, ladies, listen to meMr. Heseltine you drove into our town
The northern rain always drizzling down
Shoppers at the window stopped to look
As you signed another copy of your book'Cause you have all the power
And you have all the wealth
And we've got nothing but ourselves
We've got nothing but ourselves
We've got nothing but ourselvesSo we'll do away with leaders, bosses and police
Reclaim our actions, rediscover our voices
Salvage our integrity, reassert our dignity
Power in the heart of the communityMr. Heseltine listen to me, we don't want power
And we don't want money
We're fighting for the right to decide
How the power and the wealth
Be equally dividedOld people in Seacroft need money for bills
Single mums with kids want decent meals
And we all want new coats
When all's said and done

They're all worn out from being walked uponThere comes a time when we organize
When we take control of our daily lives
When we don't obey orders from authority
When we disbelieve the myths of democracyDemocracy Street, Britain's longest running soap opera
With the added illusion of audience participation
Our act tonight, on the left, capitalism that's right
On the right, capitalism is it
In the middle, probably the best capitalism in the worldRemember it's your choice
Your five seconds worth of action that counts
I mean that most sincerely voters
Sit tight, keep quiet, 'till the next timeThe next time being one thousand eight hundred
And twenty-five days away
Well, if freedom is the choice between greed and practically
The same impression
Then I'll take the one thousand eight hundred and twenty-five days
Never mind the ballots, here's the rest of your lifeMr. Heseltine drove away
Two more appointments in the north today
Helpless and powerless
We join the queue for the metro busAnd Mr. Heseltine I've made up my mind
I'll never give support to you and your kind
And Mr. Heseltine I've made up my mind
I'll never give support to you and your kindAnd Mr. Heseltine I've made up my mind
I'll never give support to you and your kind
And Mr. Heseltine I've made up my mind
I'll never give support to you and your kind
