The Way We're Made - Missing Andy[00:00:00]
I'm made in England[00:00:06]
I call it my kingdom[00:00:08]
She might let me down[00:00:11]
She would never take a bow for me[00:00:13]
Sold down the river[00:00:16]
You scream till they hear ya[00:00:19]
And I'm still standing proud[00:00:22]
Even as every town has fallen down[00:00:24]
To it's knees[00:00:28]
Right from the time when I was born in 89[00:00:41]
I lived in a terraced house[00:00:43]
Tenth down the line[00:00:45]
We didn't have much money[00:00:46]
But we got on just fine[00:00:47]
And knock down ginger is[00:00:49]
What we played just to pass the time[00:00:50]
And for school dinners[00:00:52]
We had something called semilina[00:00:53]
Your guess is good as mine[00:00:55]
I don't know what it is either[00:00:56]
And I can remember an explosion going off[00:00:58]
On the wharf one day[00:00:59]
And I was scared[00:01:00]
And that's when mum used to say[00:01:01]
She would often tell me don't be afraid[00:01:03]
She would often say[00:01:06]
It's just that things ain't great[00:01:07]
And all through the night time sleeping[00:01:09]
With the lights[00:01:11]
It's just the way you was made[00:01:12]
Just the way you was made[00:01:13]
She would often tell me just be safe[00:01:15]
She would often say run[00:01:17]
Fight another day[00:01:19]
Never went to church but yet[00:01:20]
Sometimes we prayed[00:01:22]
It's just the way I was made[00:01:23]
I'm made in England[00:01:24]
I call it my kingdom[00:01:27]
She may let me down[00:01:30]
She would never take a bow for me[00:01:32]
Sold down the river[00:01:36]
You scream till they hear ya[00:01:38]
And I'm still standing proud[00:01:41]
Even as every town has fallen down[00:01:43]
To it's knees[00:01:47]
Straight home from school[00:01:49]
And it was grange hill on the box[00:01:49]
Dinner was a chippy now[00:01:51]
We love the curry shop[00:01:53]
Then straight to the streets to see[00:01:54]
What was happening[00:01:56]
There was still a healthy fear for the old bill[00:01:57]
For breaking and entering[00:01:59]
The only bit of grass we had[00:02:00]
Said no ball games[00:02:01]
And in the bushes there was glue sniffers[00:02:02]
And perverts on a day to day[00:02:04]
And then a bus explodes[00:02:05]
And 7/7 blows us all away[00:02:07]
And that's when I got advice from me dad[00:02:09]
And he would often tell me[00:02:11]
Don't be afraid[00:02:12]
He would often say[00:02:14]
It's just the same fear a different name[00:02:15]
So take it in your stride[00:02:17]
Don't let it compromise[00:02:18]
Just the way you was made son[00:02:19]
Just the way you was made[00:02:21]
He would always tell me[00:02:22]
Don't 'cause a fight[00:02:24]
But if it comes your way son[00:02:25]
Fight for your life[00:02:26]
Never went to church[00:02:28]
But sometimes I prayed[00:02:29]
It's just the way I was made[00:02:30]
I'm made in England[00:02:32]
I call it my kingdom[00:02:35]
She may let me down[00:02:38]
She would never take a bow for me[00:02:40]
Sold down the river[00:02:43]
You scream till they hear ya[00:02:46]
And I'm still standing proud[00:02:49]
Even as every town has fallen down[00:02:51]
To it's knees[00:02:55]
And I love the feeling[00:02:56]
And sense of pride[00:02:57]
Is when England are playing[00:02:59]
And we can stand there side by side[00:03:00]
And the passion is felt[00:03:02]
Throughout the ground[00:03:03]
Or people watching on their TV screens[00:03:03]
'Cause we hope we're gonna bring it home[00:03:05]
And it ain't just a dream[00:03:07]
God how sad is that[00:03:08]
I talk about pride[00:03:10]
And you tag me the enemy[00:03:11]
I'm just your average working class[00:03:13]
Tea in a flask[00:03:15]
Subsidizing your properties[00:03:16]
But we won't stand up and take back[00:03:18]
And stop this all this greed[00:03:20]
There is no choice out there[00:03:21]
They all bring us to our knees[00:03:23]
And sometimes we drink drink drink to excess[00:03:24]
'Cause one half don't realise the other half's[00:03:27]
In a mess[00:03:29]
So take another picture[00:03:30]
And send me the fine[00:03:31]
Charge me the earth for all the things[00:03:33]
I need to buy[00:03:34]
It's totally insane[00:03:35]
But I guess we won't complain[00:03:37]
It's just the way we're made[00:03:38]
I'm made in England[00:03:40]
I call it my kingdom[00:03:42]
She may let me down[00:03:45]
She would never take a bow for me[00:03:47]
Sold down the river[00:03:51]
You scream till they hear ya[00:03:54]
And I'm still standing proud[00:03:57]
Even as every town has fallen down[00:03:59]
To it's knees[00:04:03]
I'm made in England[00:04:14]
I call it my kingdom[00:04:16]
And I'm still standing proud[00:04:19]
Even as every town has fallen down[00:04:21]
To it's knees[00:04:25]
