United Hills

Leisure and pleasure an trinkets from tin
And highway improvements ready for spring
We've all gone inland with old songs of the sea
And you're singing strange shanties down fisherman's quay

United Hills
United Downs
United Hills
Don't bring me down

Knick knacks and fudge and a burger for tea
You're done up like surfers you'll never be
Move down and move in and tidy it up
But spare us a sip from your heritage cup

United Hills
United Downs
United Hills
Don't bring me down

Roosting in ruins and all holding hand
And circling scrapyards eight miles inland
Turbines on burrows and roundabout stores
Bald tyres and beer cans covered in gorse

United Hills
United Downs
United Hills
Don't bring me down

Why can't we find our footprints in the sand
And where has the spirit gone from our land?
