Strontium 90 - New World Blues lyrics

All those stories that used to say There's a new world begins today Bad old days just a memory Trouble is that it seems to me It's the same old planet Golden dreams of a golden age Silver tongue of an ancient sage When the promise is half-fulfilled Seems it's time for you to pay all the bills No, no, no, not on the planet I had a vision the other night Woken up by an angel of light She sang a song so pure and bright A simple tale of how it might Have been My political friend tells me I've got to fight He says I've got to stand up for my rights Well that's all right, my friend, you know I will Just one thing you know I ain't gonna k** No, no, no, not on the planet Go take me flying out of this place To another time and some other space I'm just another soldier fallen from grace Won't you see me with a smile on my face? No, no, no, not on the planet It's a new world Not on the planet It's the same old planet Not on the planet It's a new world Not on the planet But it's the same old planet...
