There's a new wave on the way There's a new mood on the street And there's talk of Armageddon Under the breasts on page three And they're singing shitty songs About staying in bed all day While the terraces say "Go home" Mother, I did what you said Mother, I tried to be plain Mother, I tried to fit in I tried to win at their game, game But father, what can I say? When all I'm given is pain While all I'm given is lame When all I'm given is same, same, same? See, it's getting kind of gwily up in here For a dark skinned boy that doesn't play by the rules And it's getting kind of raw up in here Got me thinking and hoping and dreaming While England burns Let England burn so we can start again, oh There's a cancer in their hearts Metastasize on message boards Still they're rounding up the young And polluting all their forts Burn the churches and the rules Burn the House of Lords too Desecrate the cenotaph Burn the prisons and the schools I don't believe what they say There can be no other way There can be nothing to gain There can be nothing but hate I'm like, "Okay none of our children are safe None of the darkies can play None of the darkies can stay It was never for us, it was never our home anyway" See, it's getting kind of jank up in here For the mistrust youth, 'dem that like to run their mouth See, it's getting kind of moist up in here Got me stunting and doping and scheming While England burns Let England burn While London burns As Grenfell burns, can we start again? Bring my bow of burning gold Bring me my chariot of fire The lion killed the unicorn And threw his carcass on the pyre
