don't want to talk to you and, | |
You don't want to talk to me, | |
So I'll shut my eyes and think of England, | |
While I speak, | |
You don't want my photograph, | |
And I don't want to know your name, | |
You say we look the same, | |
Like, everybody else, | |
Maybe that's because we like to keep ourselves to ourselves, | |
You want something different, | |
You want something false, | |
You want your opinion to always be involved, | |
That won't last at all, | |
No that's not natural, | |
If you should change your colours, | |
Or you should change your mind, | |
I won't go holding grudges, | |
I'll let sleeping dogs lie, | |
Oh how you'd love it, | |
If we'd disappeared, | |
Along the horizon, | |
Going down like sinking ships, | |
In the night time, | |
No one came to save our souls, | |
No one came to fix the holes, | |
But we made it back to land, | |
So if you've backed the underdog, | |
You may collect your winnings, | |
If you should change your colours, | |
Or you should change your mind, | |
I won't go holding grudges, | |
I'll let sleeping dogs lie, | |
But by the same token, | |
I cannot forget, | |
How you hanged your… | |
Those you don't respect, | |
So I will not pretend, | |
You and I want to be friends, | |
Cos' we both know that that would be a lie |
don' t want to talk to you and, | |
You don' t want to talk to me, | |
So I' ll shut my eyes and think of England, | |

You don' t want my photograph, | |
And I don' t want to know your name, | |
