XTC - When We Get to England текст песни

When we get to england

Will we know when weve arrived?

When we get to england

Will we know if she has died?

Does the girl with the dogs

Still live in the big house

On the corner?

Are the boys collecting frogs

Still marching away

To die in war?

Like its all from a dream

Like its all from some history book

Didnt look too hard

Did I miss something that I should have seen?

When we get to england

Will it still be there?

When we get to england

Will we know where weve arrived?

When we get to england

Will a kiss bring her alive?

Once a farmer in the field

Had to grow enough

To feed his family

Now they pay him for his yield

Just to burn it down

And throw away

Like its all from a dream

Like its all in a crystal ball

Did it fall so hard?

Rest in pieces on a village green

When we get to england

Will it still be there?

When we get to england
