New Model Army - R.I.P. Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • This all started the way things do
  • With a laugh and a cup of tea around the fire
  • As we sheltered from those wicked winds in front of that old TV
  • And we traded ideas as we watched each other with those ambitious bright eyes
  • Those eyes that saw every detail of the world so clear
  • And we bided our time impatiently until the hunger really burned
  • And the softest sweetest kisses were lost amidst the thunder in our hearts
  • We watched the people round us getting up, getting on, getting old
  • But the game we were going to play so well - we'd get to stay young forever
  • To begin with they just smiled and stepped around our little fire
  • But remember how pretty soon that all began to change
  • But now bitter in this great city all the little children should go home
  • Because the big men want to make deals
  • When they find you've got something they want
  • The party's gone, the party's done, the party's over children
  • You'd better go home
  • Funny how they all come running if you let your pockets jangle a little
  • And there's that strange queasy feeling
  • Every time someone holds a door open for you
  • Such sweetness, such kindness - while they manoeuvre you into position
  • And we all know how hard it is to bite the hand that feeds you
  • Remember all those old films we used to watch every Friday night on TV
  • However fast you run, however slow the Mummy walks
  • It always catches you in the end
  • The party's gone, the party's done, the party's over children
  • You'd better go home
  • This ain't no place anymore for little girls or little boys
  • Not unless you want them to spoon-feed you all your life
  • The party's gone, the party's done, the party's over children
  • This dream is gone, this dream is dead, this dream is over, children
  • You'd better go home
