Wat overigens wel "grappig" is, is dat de thema's weer helemaal actueel zijn. Dat is zeker tijdens de corona situatie en het politieke theater van de laaste jaren wel duidelijk geworden. Het nummer This Country had zo anno 2021/2022 geschreven kunnen zijn.
I'm sick and tired of the rumour
Here it comes again
Pouring down on me
This country's going the drain
Washed down by the rain
Washed down by the rain
This country's going to the dogs
But then it always was
But then it always was
A nation of shopkeepers
Becomes a nation of stockbrokers
Everyone's a fortuneseeker
Doing bingo in the paper
This county talks of liberty
But chooses not to see
It's all hypocrisy
Free enterprise but not free to strike
The privileged few can do what he likes
And the rest can depend on paying their price
I spit in the eye of your free enterprise
And i get sick of hearing
Things are getting better now
Things are getting better for me
And I get sick of being told
The future's looking brighter
The future don't look brighter for me
This country is going to the war
This country will be the ruin of us all
This country is running out of time
For this country it's the end of the line
I'm sick and tired of the rumour
Here it comes again
Pouring down on me
This country's going the drain
Washed down by the rain
Washed down by the rain
This country's going to the dogs
But then it always was
But then it always was
A nation of shopkeepers
Becomes a nation of stockbrokers
Everyone's a fortuneseeker
Doing bingo in the paper
This county talks of liberty
But chooses not to see
It's all hypocrisy
Free enterprise but not free to strike
The privileged few can do what he likes
And the rest can depend on paying their price
I spit in the eye of your free enterprise
And i get sick of hearing
Things are getting better now
Things are getting better for me
And I get sick of being told
The future's looking brighter
The future don't look brighter for me
This country is going to the war
This country will be the ruin of us all
This country is running out of time
For this country it's the end of the line
