Thea Gilmore - The New Tin Drum lyrics
[Thea Gilmore - The New Tin Drum lyrics]
Fire up the heartland let the old Lion Roar
Watch em give those bleeding hearts what for
Saw a man on a screen tough sort of nut
Chamois leather face
And a laugh like a head butt
Monkey business as usual
They’re putting up a bigger fence
Summon up the fear of God
Gonna call it common sense
Hey hey the new tin drum
Little boy blue they're coming for you
King of the hill and the queen of the slum
Look at them dancing
Dancing to the new tin drum
They enjoy a bit of free fall
Like to cut to the chase
Cut out the middleman mark out the race
And he talks a good game
He walks a fine line a tankard and a tan
And a no vacancy sign
Monkey business as usual
They’re singing that familiar song
Better pray we can send em on their way
Or we’ll all fall down before too long
Hey hey the new tin drum little boy blue
They’re coming for you
Its fine for a few and it's alright for some
Look at them dancing
Dancing to the new tin drum
Riffing on the empire
Sending out a brick bat
Burning little effigies and welcome mats
Someone in the South East
Is losing their religion
And it's salt meet wound
Cat say hello to pigeon
Blind votes scapegoats how about that
Talking 26 million to get em pumped on stats
Get the great back in the name
Get the homeys back to work
Send your heart to Jerusalem via Dunkirk
Hey hey the new tin drum little boy blue
They’re coming for you
Its fine for a few and it's alright for some
Look at them dancing
Dancing to the new tin drum
Watch em give those bleeding hearts what for
Saw a man on a screen tough sort of nut
Chamois leather face
And a laugh like a head butt
Monkey business as usual
They’re putting up a bigger fence
Summon up the fear of God
Gonna call it common sense
Hey hey the new tin drum
Little boy blue they're coming for you
King of the hill and the queen of the slum
Look at them dancing
Dancing to the new tin drum
They enjoy a bit of free fall
Like to cut to the chase
Cut out the middleman mark out the race
And he talks a good game
He walks a fine line a tankard and a tan
And a no vacancy sign
Monkey business as usual
They’re singing that familiar song
Better pray we can send em on their way
Or we’ll all fall down before too long
Hey hey the new tin drum little boy blue
They’re coming for you
Its fine for a few and it's alright for some
Look at them dancing
Dancing to the new tin drum
Riffing on the empire
Sending out a brick bat
Burning little effigies and welcome mats
Someone in the South East
Is losing their religion
And it's salt meet wound
Cat say hello to pigeon
Blind votes scapegoats how about that
Talking 26 million to get em pumped on stats
Get the great back in the name

Send your heart to Jerusalem via Dunkirk
Hey hey the new tin drum little boy blue
They’re coming for you
Its fine for a few and it's alright for some
Look at them dancing
Dancing to the new tin drum
