Distant England © 2013 Hobbs/Langford Can you hear me Mr Grimsdale, am I getting through at last? I'm the voice of Distant England, speaking from the past There's monuments and statues to those honoured by the Queen Which most of us in truth have never seen Little men and little women, just trying to get by Not the land of milk and honey we've been fattened on a lie this ground on which you're walking, this land that holds your roots is owned by very ,very few should you want to hear the truth Centuries of servitude centuries of pain But it's not you that ever saw the gains Can you hear me Mr Grimsdale, am I getting through at last? I'm the voice of Distant England, speaking from the past this country that we irrigate with blood and pounds and pence and our hopes and dreams are trivial and of little consequence The church kept us in our places as we served their every need and the lord and masters worshipped at an altar of their greed The fear of hell's damnation kept the masses all in line and working for his lordship used to take up all our time Can you hear me Mr Grimsdale, am I getting through at last? I'm the voice of Distant England, speaking from the past
