Mr Maggee

Remember the Newcastle miners
Remember when water was free
Remember the times when you could have been fined,
for just walking in three's down the street my friend,
a picnic a small family treat
The fear of the Russians abated,
they searched for a new bogie man
he was dealing in drugs and that frightened enough,
to believe in that Government's plan
Yes they believed in that Government's plan

Mr Maggee do your worst
'cos it's over and now you been cursed
While your true colours come to the for
As you scream as you leave and ignore,
and ignore, and ignore... and ignore

The Pied Piper played patriotism
and pulled the young men by the ears
They nurtured the born again fascists to follow them
Giving another four years
Yes that gave them another four years

Well me, I been out of this Country
didn't like the things I was shown,
but now we all know there's just ... years to go
I might call this Country my home, again
I might call this Country my home
