Man looks up on a yellow sky | |
And the rain turns to rust in his eye | |
Rumours of his health are lies | |
Old england is dying | |
His clothes are dirty shade of blue | |
And his ancient shoes worn through | |
He steals from me and he lies to you | |
Old england is dying | |
Still he sings an empires song | |
And he keeps his navy strong | |
And he sticks his flag where it ill belongs | |
Old england is dying | |
You're asking what makes me sigh now | |
What it is makes me shudder so | |
Well | |
I just freeze in the wind | |
And i'm numb from the pummeling of the snow | |
That falls from high in yellow skies | |
Where the time stained of england flies | |
Where the homes are warm and the mothers sigh | |
Where comedians laugh and babies cry | |
Where criminals are televised politicians fraternize | |
Journalists are dignified and everyone is civilised | |
And children stare with heroin eyes | |
Old england! | |
Evening has fallen | |
The swans are singing | |
The last of sundays bells is ringing | |
The wind in the trees is sighing | |
And old england is dying |
Man looks up on a yellow sky | |
And the rain turns to rust in his eye | |
Rumours of his health are lies | |
Old england is dying | |
His clothes are dirty shade of blue | |
And his ancient shoes worn through | |
He steals from me and he lies to you | |
Old england is dying | |
Still he sings an empires song | |
And he keeps his navy strong | |
And he sticks his flag where it ill belongs | |
Old england is dying | |
You' re asking what makes me sigh now | |
What it is makes me shudder so | |
Well | |
I just freeze in the wind | |
And i' m numb from the pummeling of the snow | |
That falls from high in yellow skies | |
Where the time stained of england flies | |
Where the homes are warm and the mothers sigh | |
Where comedians laugh and babies cry | |
Where criminals are televised politicians fraternize | |
Journalists are dignified and everyone is civilised | |
And children stare with heroin eyes | |
Old england! | |
Evening has fallen | |
The swans are singing | |
The last of sundays bells is ringing | |
The wind in the trees is sighing | |
And old england is dying |
Man looks up on a yellow sky | |
And the rain turns to rust in his eye | |
Rumours of his health are lies | |
Old england is dying | |
His clothes are dirty shade of blue | |
And his ancient shoes worn through | |
He steals from me and he lies to you | |
Old england is dying | |
Still he sings an empires song | |
And he keeps his navy strong | |
And he sticks his flag where it ill belongs | |
Old england is dying | |
You' re asking what makes me sigh now | |
What it is makes me shudder so | |
Well | |
I just freeze in the wind | |
And i' m numb from the pummeling of the snow | |
That falls from high in yellow skies | |
Where the time stained of england flies | |
Where the homes are warm and the mothers sigh | |
Where comedians laugh and babies cry | |
Where criminals are televised politicians fraternize | |
Journalists are dignified and everyone is civilised | |
And children stare with heroin eyes | |

The swans are singing | |
The last of sundays bells is ringing | |
The wind in the trees is sighing | |
And old england is dying |
