Strawbs - New World lyrics

rate me

There's blood in the dust<br />

Where the city's heart beats<br />

The children play games<br />

That they take from the streets<br />

How can you teach when you've so much to learn<br />

May you turn<br />

In your grave<br />

New world.<br />

<br />

There is hate in your eyes<br />

I have seen it before<br />

Planning destruction<br />

Behind the locked door<br />

Were you the coward who fired the last shot<br />

May you rot<br />

In your grave<br />

New world.<br />

<br />

There is death in the air<br />

With the lights growing dim<br />

As those who survive <br />

Sing a desperate hymn<br />

Pray that God grants you one final request<br />

May you rest<br />

In your grave<br />

New world.
