How can they be tired
of England
They'll never know
the England
that we know
Never know where the ones
with the dreams go no
Never notice the skies
with their eyes down low
We'll never be tired
of England
United in rain
in the cities
To channel the pain
and the pity's woe
To carry them back to
the place below
With the blues the greys
the green the brown
To lonely nights uptown
Don't let them
bring you down
Lonely nights uptown
Don't let them
bring us down no
How can they be tired
of London
The sense in the
air on a warm day
Generation of hope
that sees better days
But moving along in the same old ways
We'll never be tired of London
From Clerkenwell into the city
The state of the roofs
is a pity though
Generations all cramped
with their kids in tow
With the blues the greys
the green the brown
To lonely nights uptown
Don't let them bring you down
Lonely nights uptown
Don't let them bring us down no
While the Queen of England
sits on her throne
Off bingo cards and chicken bones
Don't drink yourself to
a lonely death
In casinos on crystal meth
Don't drink yourself to
a lonely death
In casinos on crystal meth
So sing your song of
Banbury Cross
Don't breathe a word about your loss
Don't trust Old Nick to fall on dawn
Half sized cars and top shelf porn
How can they be tired of England
How can they be tired of England
How can they be tired of England
How can they be tired of England
