England Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It is opening day and a brand new start
The stores are bein’ cleared around the fishermen’s huts
And the air bites the leaves, almost invisible cuts on the skin
A lighthouse retired, but a new one was hired
Abound twenty foot tall and painted in black and white
Twenty million steps with a computer inside instead of him
[Chorus]
Only one boat sign, didn’t cost to slow down
And a long drop in the ocean
Beware of the riptide, broken glass and train rides
It’s a new day and this is England
[Verse 2]
Next to the park with the flag that’s workin’ flexible hours
‘Cause there’s a mismatch of carriages sorted in a boat of sunflowers
Fairy lights on a building that’s supplyin’ us power from the sea
Electricity lines flow like veins to the town
In-between there’s nothing but grass and pebbles on the ground
Do not answer the wild here if you want to be found for the free
[Chorus]
View the famous sunrise cutting half by the sky
And the empty of the desert
Team of birds that swerve by and the land on the horizon
It’s a new day and this is England
[Bridge]
When it’s time to escape from the heavier things
There is nothin’ like washin’ away
I find this country of mine get some bad reputation
Of being cold and grey
But on the coast this south to the east follow ground
I find serenity I’ve never found
There’s a peace, enough quiet in the silent bars
That can’t be mirrored by anywhere else
[Verse 3]
Homes protruding from stones with their wood-coloured black
It’s got a car in the line, steam risin’ out the shaft
One door at the front and then just glass at the back for the view
[Chorus]
And the blue is so bright, you’ll need shades for your eyes
And the cable to pull over
Take a walk and feel light, everything will be fine
It’s a new day and this is England
