Drag It Down Lyrics - New Model Army

They started work this morning down at city square 

They're pulling down the statues of our great grandfather's hero 

The new books said he wasn't such a great man after all 

And anyway remember that the times they are a-changing 

Pull it down, drag it down 

Till there's nothing to look up to 

But the brand names on the posters all around 

They proved on television last night that God was just a lie 

He never made the world at all 

It was just some sweet old fashioned right 

So melt down all the ornaments, move out all the graves 

And let us build the disco that we need for our young braves 

Pull it down, drag it down 

Till the hopes and dreams of all the ages 

Past are shattered on the ground
