With you Stan, it must surely be time for the UK to be managed for the benefit of all the people not just those that have money and power.

A fine song with very relaxing vocals and music, Stan!

Great song, nice message, bravo my friends !

Perfectly constructed and performed. Great lyrics!

Great song, gents. Yes we're living in the age of growing inequality.

Your sound reminds me a bit of the Moody Blues. Really resonates. 💛

LYRICS

Kept on walking straight ahead
There was no-one round they'd gone to bed
They were not sleeping
They worried 'bout the things
They could not change

The Governments just would not help
Just told us tighten up your belt
Another notch or two
But we know that we'll get through

ooooh la la la la
ooooh la la la la

My shoes were worn
And full of holes
I could touch the pavement through the soles
One good shirt and one good vest
Now no-one had a Sunday best

Churches empty no-one prayed
Everyone just seemed afraid
They'd meet God soon enough
They've got things oh so rough

Ooooh la la la la
Ooooh la la la la

Looted shops and broken glass
The lifestyle of the working class
But no-one worked there were no jobs
And factories had turned to rust
And rival gangs patrolled the streets
Would kill each other when they meet

Instrumental

Food was rationed just enough
And any dreams had turned to dust
But lords and ladies dined so well
They had no idea of this hell

I kept on walking straight ahead
There was no-one around they'd gone to bed
But they were not sleeping
They worried 'bout the things
They could not change

Ooooh la la la la
Ooooh la la la la


Outro

Things They Could Not Change Change

Thank you so much for listening to my music, if I don’t reply immediately I do apologise. Life has a way of getting in the way of things I’d rather be doing but I do appreciate your listening and support.
