Ballad Of Jj Decay Lyrics - We Are...the League - Anti-nowhere League

Well gather around you boys now and listen to the man 

He says we've fought evaded but united we will stand 

We'll sacrifice the older ones living in the past 

We'll burn up their religions and we'll all be free at last 

We'll put a hat upon his head and then we'll call him God 

And then we'll share our health in him like peas do in a pod 

This is the story of a man with his future in his head 

But no-one ever listens to him when he's dead 

We're all getting older 

The light is on and bolder 

We're all getting older 

We'll follow him throughout the land obeying his command 

We'll dance a sort of hatred that we think we understand 

The children came a-running from their houses of decay 

And laid the trust upon a fool who found a better way 

He preach the words of wisdom with his hands and with his mouth 

Then everyone believed him and then he believed himself 

This is the story of a man with his future in his head 

But no-one ever listens to him when he's dead 

We're all getting older 

The light is on and bolder 

We're all getting older 

Decay 

(Spoken voice in background of Neville Chamberlain) 

"This morning I had another talk with the German 

Chancellor Herr Hitler. 

Here is the paper which bears his name upon it 

as well as mine. We regard the agreement signed 

last night as symbolic of the desire of our two 

peoples never to go to war with one another again." ) 

We're all getting older 

The light is on and bolder 

We're all getting older 

Decay 

The year had come and gone and everyone began to see 

Why did we follow such a fool in such a mindless way? 

Let's turn our hatred to this man - we know he's just a fraud 

We crucify him with the rest and find another God 

How many times have you heard someone's coming here to say 

That from your hell on earth that you will love until your grave 

This is the story of a man with nothing in his head 

And no-one's going to listen to you when you're dead 

We're all getting older 

The light is on and bolder 

We're all getting older 

We're all getting older 

We're all getting older 

We're all getting older 

We're all getting older 

We're all getting older 

We're all getting older
