"I Don't Want To Leave England" lyrics - OCEAN COLOUR SCENE

OCEAN COLOUR SCENE
"I Don't Want To Leave England"

Now the old lady has pricked all the thumbs
The threat bare announcement there all over town
Now we're being sentenced to 99 years
Still I don't want to leave England

And only place I hidden my masks
Behind what your gates sprint their houses and cars
The gardeners hands are all covered with scars
Still I don't want to leave England
You can't see that with your plain eyes

[Pre-Chorus:]
Still I don't want to leave England
I don't want to leave England

[Chorus:]
We've been lost in the best days
Coming last in the first place
And it's wasting our time

Now the old lady come live in the shoe
So many children with nothing to do
Except for the poor ones and standing the queues
Still I don't want to leave England
Build a plan see at your play

[Pre-Chorus:]
Still I don't want to leave England
I don't want to leave England

[Chorus:]
We've been lost in the best days
Coming last in the first place
And it's wasting our time
