Heartland - THE THE[00:00:00]
Beneath the old iron bridge across the[00:00:15]
Victorian parks And all the frightened people[00:00:18]
Running home before dark Past the Saturday[00:00:21]
Morning cinema that lies crumbling to the[00:00:23]
Ground And the piss stinking shopping[00:00:25]
Center in the new side of town I've come[00:00:27]
To smell the seasons change and watch the city As the sun goes down again[00:00:31]
Here comes another winter of long[00:00:42]
Shadows and high hopes Here comes[00:00:45]
Another winter waitin' for utopia Waitin' for hell to freeze over[00:00:50]
This is the land where nothing changes[00:01:05]
The land of red buses and blue blooded[00:01:08]
Babies This is the place where pensioners[00:01:11]
Are raped And the hearts are being cut from[00:01:16]
The welfare state Let the poor drink the milk[00:01:19]
While the rich eat the honey Let the bums count[00:01:22]
Their blessings while they count the money[00:01:25]
So many people can't express what's on their[00:01:45]
Minds Nobody knows them and nobody ever[00:01:48]
Will Until their backs are broken and their[00:01:51]
Dreams are stolen And they can't get what they want then they're gonna get angry[00:01:55]
Well it ain't written in the papers but it's written on the walls The way this[00:02:00]
Country is divided to fall So the cranes are moving on the skylin[00:02:05]
E Trying to knock down this town[00:02:11]
But the stains on the heartland can never be removed[00:02:15]
From this country that's sick say and confused[00:02:19]
Here comes another winter of long shadows and[00:02:30]
High hopes Here comes another winter waitin[00:02:35]
For utopia Waitin' for hell to freeze over[00:02:39]
The ammunition's being passed and the lords[00:03:16]
Been praised But the wars on the televisions will[00:03:19]
Never be explained All the bankers gettin' sweaty[00:03:23]
Beneath their white collars As the pound in our[00:03:25]
Pocket turns into a dollar[00:03:30]
This is the 51st state of the U S A[00:03:32]
This is the 51st state of the U S A[00:03:39]
This is the 51st state of the U S A[00:03:48]
