The Key To Life On Earth

Gold, let it unfold
Imagine you're dressed in gold
Roaring crowds in Manchester would manage to be told
Oh, and your king, the boy you loved in spring
The way she looks at him
The common goal, and waiting for the kids to go

We've been held back for after school meetings
They've got it in for me
For all it's worth
The key to life on Earth

Jokers, happy go xenophobe locals
Have got it in for me
For all I'm worth
The key to life on Earth

Holy smokes
You kids and your jokes
Asking where we got our jeans and where the hell we found our coats
Cause dirty streets these days are graced by Nikes of black and green
And headstrong boys in chinos barely grasp what that could mean

And they lie, the men that wrung us dry
The boys who poked your eye
The common fool, the walk to school for you and I

We've been held back for after-school meetings
They've got it in for me
For all it's worth
The key to life on Earth

The thing is, these out-of-touch scrounging rich kids
Are living here for free
On my home turf
The key to life on Earth

Calling to wake you up in the morning
Iron the suit and tie, forever until you die
Join forces, like carousels and their horses forever spinning 'round
And never coming down

Come out and join us honey, we will sort you out
Come work in Brookfield Park and we can shut your mouth
Come work in Sainsbury's babe until you've had enough
Come on out, come on out
Come out and join us honey, we will sort you out
Come work in Brenley Farm and we can shut your mouth
Come work in Sainsbury's babe until you've had enough
Come on out, come on out
