[00:14.94]I saw a newspaper picture
[00:19.82]From the political campaign
[00:24.60]A woman was kissing a child
[00:29.68]Who was obviously in pain
[00:34.54]She spills with compassion
[00:39.71]As that young child's
[00:41.16]Face in her hands she grips
[00:44.93]Can you imagine all that greed and avarice
[00:51.93]Coming down on that child's lips
[00:56.88]Well I hope I don't die too soon
[01:02.21]I pray the Lord my soul to save
[01:06.79]Yes I'll be a good boy
[01:12.20]I'm trying so hard to behave
[01:17.13]Because there's one thing I know
[01:21.78]I'd like to live
[01:23.09]Long enough to savour
[01:27.86]That's when they finally put you in the ground
[01:38.02]I'll stand on your grave and tramp the dirt down
[01:53.30]When England was the whore of the world
[01:57.20]Margaret was her madam
[02:03.42]And the future looked as bright and as clear as
[02:07.21]The black tarmacadam
[02:13.37]Well I hope that she sleeps well at night isn't
[02:18.97]Haunted by every tiny detail
[02:23.68]When she held that lovely face in her hands
[02:27.58]All she thought of was betrayal
[02:43.13]And now the cynical ones say
[02:48.73]That it all ends the same in the long run
[02:53.48]Try telling that to the desperate father
[02:58.58]Who just squeezed the life from his
[03:02.17]Only son
[03:04.03]And how it's only voices in your head
[03:10.32]And dreams you never dreamt
[03:14.30]Try telling him the subtle difference
[03:19.47]Between justice and contempt
[03:24.50]Try telling me she isn't angry with
[03:29.95]This pitiful discontent
[03:34.58]When they flaunt it in your face as
[03:39.37]You line up for punishment
[03:44.19]And then expect you to say Thank you straighten up
[03:51.21]Look proud and pleased
[03:54.11]Because you've only got the symptoms
[03:59.36]You haven't got the whole disease
[04:04.27]Just like a schoolboy
[04:06.58]Whose head's like a tin-can filled up with dreams
[04:11.15]Then poured down the drain
[04:14.25]Try telling that to the boys on both sides
[04:19.34]Being blown to bits or beaten and
[04:23.09]Maimed
[04:25.40]Who takes all the glory and none of the shame
[04:36.82]Well I hope you live long now
[04:42.21]I pray the Lord your soul to keep
[04:47.16]I think I'll be going before
[04:52.35]We fold our arms and start to weep
[04:57.50]I never thought for a moment
[05:02.75]That human life could be so cheap
[05:08.79]When they finally put you in the ground
[05:18.81]They'll stand there laughing and tramp the dirt down
