The new tin drum


Fire up the heartland
Let the old Lion Roar
Watch em give those bleeding hearts what for

Saw a man on a screen
Tough sort of nut
Chamois leather face
And a laugh like a head butt

Monkey business as usual
They're putting up a bigger fence
Summon up the fear of God
Gonna call it common sense

Hey hey the new tin drum
Little boy blue they\re coming for you
King of the hill and the queen of the slum
Look at them dancing
Dancing to the new tin drum

They enjoy a bit of free fall
Like to cut to the chase
Cut out the middlemanMark out the race

And he talks a good game
He walks a fine line
A tankard and a tan
And a no vacancy sign

Monkey business as usual
They're singing that familiar song
Better pray we can send em on their way
Or we'll all fall down before too long

Hey hey the new tin drum
Little boy blue
They're coming for you
Its fine for a few and its alright for some
Look at them dancing
Dancing to the new tin drum

Riffing on the empire
Sending out a brick bat
Burning little effigies
And welcome mats
Someone in the South East is losing their religion
And its salt meet wound
Cat say hello to pigeon
Blind votes scapegoats
How about that
Talking 26 million
To get em pumped on stats
Get the great back in the name
Get the homeys back to work
Send your heart to Jerusalem
Via Dunkirk

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
