The People Who Grinned Themselves To Death - The Housemartins[00:00:00]
They smiled so much and waved their flags[00:00:20]
As she saluted to the military band[00:00:25]
Most of the people failed to see[00:00:30]
She had a broken bottle in the other hand[00:00:35]
And she took them by surprise[00:00:41]
When she took them by the throat[00:00:44]
And said my friend you're not allowed to vote[00:00:47]
But they shook it all off[00:00:51]
With a nervous laugh and cough[00:00:54]
Next time she said I'll let those people choke[00:00:57]
The people who grinned themselves to death[00:01:05]
Smiled so much they failed to take a breath[00:01:07]
And even when their kids were starving[00:01:10]
They all thought the queen was charming[00:01:12]
The people who grinned themselves to death[00:01:15]
Smiled so much they failed to take a breath[00:01:17]
And even when their kids were starving[00:01:20]
They all thought the queen was charming[00:01:23]
She polished all upon the wall[00:01:35]
And ran her hands right through her hair[00:01:40]
So if the lady took the time to call[00:01:45]
All the houses on the street would not compare[00:01:50]
And she thought it really funny[00:01:55]
That she hadn't any money[00:01:58]
But those she looked up to they had[00:02:01]
But they shook it all off[00:02:06]
With a nervous laugh and cough[00:02:08]
And when they took her riches it was sad[00:02:11]
The people who grinned themselves to death[00:02:19]
Smiled so much they failed to take a breath[00:02:22]
And even when their kids were starving[00:02:24]
They all thought the queen was charming[00:02:27]
The people who grinned themselves to death[00:02:29]
Smiled so much they failed to take a breath[00:02:32]
And even when their kids were starving[00:02:34]
They all thought the queen was charming[00:02:37]
The people who grinned themselves to death[00:03:00]
Smiled so much they failed to take a breath[00:03:03]
And even when their kids were starving[00:03:05]
They all thought the queen was charming[00:03:08]
The people who grinned themselves to death[00:03:10]
Smiled so much they failed to take a breath[00:03:13]
And even when their kids were starving[00:03:15]
They all thought the queen was charming[00:03:18]
