Scarlet Lyr Req: Shipbuilding (Elvis Costello) (12) 'Shipbuilding' 11 Jun 99

Can anyone help me to find the lyrics to the song "Shipbuilding"? I believe it was first done by Elvis Costello in the early 1980s. It contrasted the waste of lives and resources in Thatcher's Falklands war with the decline of traditional British industry. Just basically a really beautiful song, any more information on it much appreciated. love and liberation, Scarlet
