"My dad's on the brew since they gave him the sack
My ma's sense of humour's beginning to crack
Our kid's on his bike again, I'm on the smack
Sold down the river again...........

In Toxteth and Handsworth the story's the same
Or Brixton and Belfast you cannot disclaim
If you can't find the answer then please take the blame
Sold down the river again............

We've launched all your liners and fought in your wars
Unloaded your cargoes, assembled your cars
When we went to Westminster to show you the scars..
Sold down the river again.......

Dreams and democracy, schemes and hypocrisy
Sold down..........
Martyrs and heretics,masons and politics
Sold down.........."

Just listened to the record again through the cans......

Don
