I never thought I'd see the day

When you became what you've become

It's easy now just to look away

And leave your conscience on the run

Spend your time not looking for answers

Someone else's to blame

As long as you don't take the drop

to you it's all the same



CHORUS

Blood, sweat and tears

Really don't matter

Just the things that you do

In this garden



Some time I like to get away

Chase a thought and fly

The people here will never change

Too scared to look outside

Community spirit, neighbourhood watch

Curtains twitching all the time

Got to have a look at what next door's got

Cos your credit's on the line



CHORUS



Don't waste your time with your visions of the future and your party lines

When you're oh so blind to the people in the

Gutter who are fighting to survive



The other day I saw a fox

Running for his life

His eyes were wide but his mind was shut

To the redcoat's bugle calls

But when he got home his path was blocked

By some sportsman's clever guise

And if this how far your culture's got

Then I deny it



CHORUS
