[Pink Floyd - The Post War Dream lyrics]

"…announced plans to build a nuclear fallout
Shelter at Peterborough in Cambridgeshire…"
"…three high court judges have
Cleared the way…"
"…It was announced today that the
Replacement for the Atlantic
Conveyor, the container ship lost
In the Falklands conflict
Would be built in Japan a spokesman for…"
"…moving in they say the third
World countries, like Bolivia
Which produce the drug are
Suffering from rising violence…"

Tell me true, tell me why
Was Jesus crucified?
Was it for this that Daddy died?
Was it you? Was it me?
Did I watch too much TV?
Is that a hint of accusation in your eyes?
If it wasn't for the Nips

Being so good at building ships
The yards would still be open on the Clyde
And it can't be much fun for them
Beneath the rising sun
With all their kids committing suicide
What have we done, Maggie, what have we done?
What have we done to England?

Should we shout, should we scream
"What happened to the post war dream?"
Oh, Maggie, Maggie, what did we do?
