Текст (слова) песни: Ian Hunter - Letter to Britannia from The Union Jack



(ian hunter)

Poor britannia - drowning in your waves

With the body of the unknown soldier and the best of the brave

I have known you ever since I was a child

How come you dont salute me - now - when I smile

You was always so young and on all o that money

How come new mourners pass you by and think its so funny

Id be there with you but Im chained unto this stake

For I am loyalty but my mast I cannot forsake

I looked down on a bunch of amusements, I looked down walls

Ive looked on hangings n parades n city halls

And Ive seen love in so many living rooms

And Ive seen rich men slowly die inside their tombs

I know were just two charms but its heavy on my mind

Have faith in me I said, now, look at time

I know youre just a victim of your history but

Have faith in me, I said and you would be free....

You pull me up and you pull me down

And when the queens in residence I hang around

I dont wave madly cos the climates civilised

Just flutter sadly cos Im old n Im wise

And you-you been up, and you - you been down

You been through many things I know you been around

I have fought armies for you in the conflicts of the past

Britannia, I implore you, do not lower me by half.
