The World That Was
The world that was has now become a cause
Inspiring simple souls all over
Who have a knack of always looking back
While drunk or even sober
No matter what you may have often heard
There's been no death of satire
There's more, not less, when "Thank you NHS"
Is painted on a spitfire
The world that was has now become a cause all over
Black and white
One truth they know
The modern world will have to go
The world that was draws memories of our past
Which seem a wee bit hazy
From what I see, the summary seems to be
More meat with extra gravy
And though I feel I'm a rational man
Sometimes I'm sorely tempted
But worship of a past that never was
Is totally demented
The world that was has now become a cause all over
Inspiring simple souls all over
Who have a knack of always looking back
While drunk or even sober
No matter what you may have often heard
There's been no death of satire
There's more, not less, when "Thank you NHS"
Is painted on a spitfire
The world that was has now become a cause all over
Black and white
One truth they know
The modern world will have to go
The world that was draws memories of our past
Which seem a wee bit hazy
From what I see, the summary seems to be
More meat with extra gravy
And though I feel I'm a rational man
Sometimes I'm sorely tempted
But worship of a past that never was
Is totally demented
The world that was has now become a cause all over
