ain't safe to go out anymore
So the police station has
The floor's full of torn up 18 stops
They put televisions in my favourite pubs
So our homes get bulldozed,
This town has left me high and dry
But I'll be here till the day I die
And they tell me I'm just pissed off
Yeah, maybe I'm pissed off
But I'd rather be pissed off
So if the world turns down our side
And then they battle on the front line
My darling, oh, hold on tight
My darling, oh, hold on tight
Said as the world burns down our side
And then they battle on the front line
My darling, oh, hold on tight
My darling, oh, hold on tight
We beg for not a show we can
Just like a donkey chasing
Watching our lives filmed in a soft focus
With abracadabra and hocus pocus
an d there's still nothing on
The television will not be revolutionised
An d they tell me I'm just pissed off
Yeah, maybe I'm pissed off
But I'd rather be pissed off
So if the world burns down outside
And then they battle on the front line
My darling, I'll hold on tight
My darling, I'll hold on tight
As the world burns down outside
And they battle on the front line
My darling, I'll hold on tight
My darling, I'll hold on tight
Cos I don't mind my rock and roll
with blood, sweat and tears
And I don't mind my reggae
to cause bleeding in my ears
I don't mind my punk rock,
the start of a revolution
to sound like an execution
Out of my sound systems on
Playing the loudest tracks
Out of my no rent, no bills, no council tax
Out of my love that isn't measured
By the relationships of the
Or the words to some dire R &B song
what a mighty, mighty good man is
So as the world burns down outside
The battle on the front line
My darling, I'll hold on tight
My darling, I'll hold on tight
As the world burns down my side
And they battle on the front line
My darling, I'll hold on tight
My darling, I'll hold on tight
