My neighbours don't drink at the localOr have kippers for breakfast like meThe food that they eat smells disgustingThey'd rather drink coffee than teaIt's true that their kids are respectfulThey gave me their seat on the busBut it's just that there's so many of themThat I fear what will become of usI'm not racist, all I want isTo make things how they used to beBut change is strange andNobody's listening to meI cheered when our side won the Cold WarSpread freedom and peace all aroundNow there's folks speaking Russian in Tesco'sIt's a shame the wall had to come downI know some are fleeing from war zonesTo keep their young children from harmBut my parents stayed put through the Blitz yearsAnd me? I was sent to a farmYeah the sun shines, but sometimesLetras de cancionesI don't feel like this is my countryBut to say so? Oh noI never get no sympathyOnce we ruled over an empireSo it feels like some kind of defeatTo comply with rules drawn up by strangersAnd measure in metres not feetWe don't want to go but by JingoIf we can't be in charge, then we mustBut don't be offended, dear neighbourIt's not you: this is all about usBut it's alright, alrightI think I've found a remedyYes it's alright, gonna be alrightIt's a full English Brexit for me
