Lyrics

[00:04.84] Artist:pulp
[00:10.94] Kids are spitting on the Town Hall steps & frightening old ladies.
[00:13.74]
[00:17.31] I dreamt that I was living back in the mid 1980s,
[00:23.80] Songs Title:last day of the miners strike
[00:10.94]
[00:25.07] People marching, people shouting, people wearing pastel leather.
[00:30.74] The future's ours for the taking now, if we just stick together.
[00:42.41] And I said
[00:44.15] "Hey, lay your burden down,
[00:51.02] Seems the last day of the miners' strike
[00:54.32] Was the Magna Carta in this part of town".
[01:04.99] Well my body sank below the ground, it became as black as night,
[01:11.23] Overhead the sound of horses' hooves, people fighting for their lives.
[01:25.90] Some joker in a headband was still getting chicks for free
[01:27.96] And Big Brother was still watching you, back in the days of '83.
[01:31.08]
[01:37.19] And I said
[01:38.81] "Hey, lay your burden down,
[01:45.37] Seems the last day of the miners' strike
[01:48.67] Was the Magna Carta in this part of town".
[02:07.21] Well by 1985 I was as cold a cold could be,
[02:12.88] But no-one was underground to dig me out and set me free.
[02:20.81] 87 socialism gave way to socialising,
[02:22.62] So put your hands up in the air once more, the north is rising...
[02:45.83] And I said
[02:47.27] "Hey, lay your burden down,
[02:48.39] Seems the last day of the miners' strike
[02:50.57] Was the Magna Carta in this part of town"
[02:59.18] Sing Hallelujah, sing Hallelujah,
[03:01.74]
[03:15.00] Don't let them fool you again, sing Hallelujah.
[03:22.06] By now I'm sick & tired of just living in this hole,
[03:48.70] So I took the ancient tablets, blew off the dust,
[03:51.95] Swallowed them whole.
[03:52.69] Oh come on, let's get together,
[03:57.50] Oh come on, the past is gone,
[04:00.68] Well the very first Commandment:
[04:04.30] Come on, come on,
[04:07.36] Let's get it on, come on let's get it on.
[04:21.90] Get it on. Get it on.
[04:35.31] Hey, lay your burden down,
[05:23.80] Seems the last day of the miners' strike
[05:28.79] Was the Magna Carta in this part of town.
