Time for Heroes
(Barat/Doherty)
Did you see the stylish kids in the riot
Shovelled up like muck
Set the night on fire
Wombles bleed truncheons and shields
You know I cherish you my love
But there's a rumour spread nasty disease around town
Caught around the houses with your trousers down
A headrush in the bush
You know I cherish you my love
Oh how I cherish you my love
Tell me what can you want
When you've got it all, the whole scene is obscene
Time will strip it away, a year and a day
And Bill Bones,
Bill Bones knows what I mean
Yes it's eating, no it's chewing me up
It's not right for young lungs to be coughing up blood
And it's all
It's all in my hands
And it's all up the walls
The stale chips are up and the hopes stakes are down
Its these ignorant faces that bring this town down
Yeah I sighed and sunken with pride
You know passed myself down on my knees
Yes I passed myself down on my knees
Now tell me what can you want
When you've got it all, the whole scene is obscene
Time will strip it away, a year and a day
And Bill Bones,
Bill Bones knows what I mean
There are fewer more distressing sights than that
Of an Englishman in a baseball cap
And we'll die in the class we were born
That's a class of our own my love
A class of our own my love
Did you see the stylish kids in the riot
Shovelled up like muck
Set the night on fire
Wombles bleed truncheons and shields
You know I cherish you my love
And I cherish you my love.
