Big Audio Dynamite - Beyond the Pale скачать видео бесплатно

From the album "No. 10, Upping St." (1986).

Lyrics:

If you don`t know where I come from

You better stear clear of my trail

From the dark side of London

And that`s way beyond the pale

My grandpa came from Russia

Stowed away hidden in some bales

And he took my grandma dancing

To the air raid sirens hail

Then Saint George used his sword on the immigrant poor

'Cos he can`t kill no dragon

If I was in those shoes

I`d say Soweto`s gonna happen here too

I gotta get a message through

Tell everybody the news

And with the winter coming...

Crossing all the borders

Through the smoke of war and rain

Papers out of order

On a military train

A coat, a bag, a baby

Status: refugee

These are the people of my family

Don't anybody know that this city was made

Of immigrant blood and money

If I was in those shoes

A black shirt with the playboy blues

I gotta get a message through

Tell everybody the news

And with the winter coming...

Now there's a rocker in Vladivostok

Got every side by Jerry Lee

But for accidents of disorder

That guy could well be me

I want everybody to know this

I want everyone to hear

Immigration built the nation

You got a bloodclaat standing here

Now Saint George used his sword on the immigrant poor

'Cos he can't kill no dragon

If I was in those shoes

I`d say Soweto`s gonna happen here too

I gotta get a message through

Tell everybody the news

And with the winter coming...

Don't anybody know that the city was made

Of immigrant blood and money

If I was in those shoes

A blackshirt with the playboy blues

I gotta get a message through

Tell everybody the news

And with the winter coming...
