There's a couple sunbathing on a freshly mown lawn in england
It's a house with a view and all you see is green and blue for miles
The local vicar has pretended that the church is well attended this morning
As he wanders without purpose to the sunday service he smiles
{oh-ho!} what a beautiful morning
{oh-ho!} what a beautiful day
{oh-ho!} what a sickening feeling
It took this long to make it, now we're throwing it away
Now, I was told not to play with fire
I said, look out church the flames grow higher
I said, watch those flames lick that spire
I said, look our church the falmes grow higher
{the world's on fire}
There's a curtain closed early in an upstairs room in england
There's a couple misbehabving when they should've been praising sunday
And there's a bounce in a walk and the neighbours stop to talk for hours
And when eyebrows are raised at the next song of praise come monday
{oh-ho!} what a beautiful morning
{oh-ho!} what a beautiful day
{oh-ho!} what a sickening feeling
It took this long to make it, now we're throwing it away
Now, I was told not to play with fire
I said, look out church the flames grow higher
I said, watch those flames lick that spire
I said, look our church the falmes grow higher
{the world's on fire}
The world's on fire!
The Housemartins sono stati un gruppo musicale inglese attivo durante gli anni ottanta. Originari di Hull, in Inghilterra, il loro sound era un mix originale di pop con influenze gospel, soul, folk, doo-wop e Merseybeat. Le armonie vocali impeccabili e l'eleganza musicale si contrapponevano a testi spesso pungenti e ironici che affrontavano temi sociali e politici. Il gruppo raggiunse il successo durante la seconda metà degli anni '80, conquistando un seguito di critica e pubblico sia nel Regno Unito che all'estero. Tra i loro brani più famosi figurano "Caravan of Love", una cover a cappella del 1986 diventata un grande successo internazionale, e "Happy Hour". Dopo aver pubblicato due album, si sciolsero nel 1988 all'apice della popolarità. Il leader del gruppo, Paul Heaton, ha continuato la sua carriera musicale con i Beautiful South.
