Bilingual
I hear a gang fight on a human factory farm
are they howlig out
or doning somebody harm?
on a catwalk jungle
somebody grabbed my arm
A voice spoke so cold it matched
the weapon in her palm
This is England
this knife of Sheffield steel
This is England
This is how we feel
time on his hands
the freezing mohawk strolls
he won't go for the carrots
been beaten by the pole
some sunny day
confronted by his soul
his eye will see
how fast you can grow old
this is England
that I'm supposed to die for
this is England
never gonna cry no more
Black shadow of the Vincent
falls on a Triumph line
I got my motorcycle jacket
but I'm walking all the time
south atlantic wind blows
ice from a dying creed
I see no glory
and when will we get free?
This is England
we can chain you to the rail
This is England
we can kill you in a jail
Hay, british boots go kick bengail in the head
police sit watching
the newspapers being read
all deaf to protest
and after the attacker feld
out came the batons and
the biggest one then said
This is England
the land of illegal dances
this is England
land of one thousand stances
This is England
This knife of sheffield steel
this is England
this is how we feel
This is England
This is England
