Show me a lifetime,
I'll show you the scars.
These streets filled with liars, pariahs and undeserving stars.
In this kingdom of cheats,
and backstabbing freaks,
and the overly proud.
We're all so proud,
oh so proud,
But can we stop saying it so loud.

If this is England, then what have we done?
Oh my England, your time has come.

As these knuckles scrape through the shit,
and we're told, "get used to it."
I'm down on my knees,
I'm drunk, I'm diseased,
"Get on with it, get over it," accept all this bullshit

In England. What have we done?
Oh my England, your time has come.

Make 'em laugh,
Make 'em cry,
Bring tears to their eyes.
With these choreographed lies, we're hypnotised.
With slight of hand and fingers crossed,
and no remorse for the battles won and lost.

This is England. This is my home.
Oh my England. Oh my home.

This Is England
