New Model Army Vengeance 1984 (Sullivan) 1984 Produced By New Model Army - The vans they come in convoys now - Stealing through the dawn - Silent in the countryside - In the hills up to the north - There's road blocks on the Meden bridge - There's click click clicking on the phone - They're sealing off our villages - Sealing off our homes - Her father crossed the battle lines - In the first months of the war - She frowns down at the soup kitchen - She doesn't have a father anymore - It's cold in the early mornings - Standing with your mates - Staring at the thick blue line - Armed and ready at the gates - This ain't some tinpot story arriving from a distant shore - But our own sweet green and pleasant land in 1984 - The servants of our great nation - Have lied in the name of us all - While the officers of peace and order - Are busy breaking every law - There's hundreds on the trumped-up charges - Hundreds on the streets - The future of our villages - Sown with bitter seeds - And hatred starts to rumble where there was no hate before - In our own sweet green and pleasant land in 1984 - Nobody wanted to see the blood - As the blue lights flash through the night - But all the words fell on deaf ears - And now the blind frustration bites - Two nations under one crown divided more and more - In our own sweet green and pleasant land in 1984 |
