I'm made in England i call it my kingdom she may let me down she would never take a bow for me sold down the river you scream till they hear ya and i'm still standing proud even as every town has fallen down to it's knees
right from the time when i was born in 89' i lived in a terraced house, 10th down the line we didnt have much money but we got on just fine and knock down ginger is what we played just to pass the time and for school dinners we had something called semilina your guess is good as mine i dont know what it is either and i can remember an explosion going off on the wharf one day and i was scared and that's when mum used to say
she would often tell me don't be afraid she would often say it's just that things ain't great and all through the night time sleeping with the lights it's just the way you was made, just the way you was made she would often tell me just be safe she would often say run fight another day never went to church but yet sometimes we prayed its just the way i was made
I'm made in England i call it my kingdom she may let me down she would never take a bow for me sold down the river you scream till they hear ya and i'm still standing proud even as every town has fallen down to it's knees
straight home from school and it was grange hill on the box dinner was a chippy now we love the curry shop then straight to the streets to see what was happening there was still a healthy fear for the old bill for breaking and entering the only bit of grass we had said no ball games and in the bushes there was glue sniffers and perverts on a day to day and then a bus explodes and 7/7 blows us all away and thats when i got advice from me dad
and he would often tell me don;t be afraid he would often say its just the same fear a different name so take it in your stride, dont let it compromise just the way you was made son, just the way you was made he would always tell me dont cause a fight but if it comes your way son fight for your life never went to church but sometimes i prayed its just the way i was made
I'm made in England i call it my kingdom she may let me down she would never take a bow for me sold down the river you scream till they hear ya and i'm still standing proud even as every town has fallen down to it's knees
And I love the feeling and sense of pride is when England are playing and we can stand there side by side and the passion is felt throughout the ground or people watching on their TV screens coz we hope we're gonna bring it home and it ain't just a dream god how sad is that i talk about pride and you tag me the enemy i'm just your average working class, tea in a flask, subsidizing your properties!
but we won't stand up and take back and stop this all this greed there is no choice out there they all bring us to our knees and sometimes we drink drink drink to excess cos one half dont realise the other half's in a mess so take anoither picture and send me the fine charge me the earth for all the things i need to buy its tottally insane but i guess we wont complain its just the way we're made
I'm made in England i call it my kingdom she may let me down she would never take a bow for me sold down the river you scream till they hear ya and i'm still standing proud even as every town has fallen down to it's knees
I'm made in England i call it my kingdom and i'm still standing proud even as every town has fallen down to it's knees
