Song | Bricks And Mortar - Peel Session, July 1977 |
Artist | The Jam |
Album | The Jam At The BBC |
作曲 : Paul Weller | |
作词 : Weller | |
Bricks and mortar, reflecting social change, | |
Cracks in the pavement, reveal cravings for success | |
Why do we try to hide our past | |
By pulling down houses and build car parks | |
Windows and mirrors like a two-way glass | |
This is progress, nothing stands in its path | |
Yellow bulldozers, the donkey jackets and j.c.b.'s | |
While hundreds are homeless they're constructing a parking space | |
Why do they have to knock them down | |
And leave the site dormant for months on end? | |
Who has the right to make that choice? | |
A man whose home has cost forty grand | |
Tell me! | |
Bricks and mortar, bricks and mortar | |
Knock 'em down! |
