England

It is opening day and a brand new startThe stores are bein' clearedaround the fishermen's hutsAnd the air bites the leavesAlmost invisible cuts on the skinA lighthouse retired, but a new one was hiredAbout twenty foot tall and painted in black and whiteTwenty million steps with a computer inside instead of himOnly one boat sign, didn't cost to slow downAnd a long drop in the oceanBeware of the riptideBroken glass and train ridesIt's a new day and this is EnglandNext to the park with the flagthat's workin' flexible hours'Cause there's a mismatchof carriages sorted in a boat of sunflowersFairy lights on a buildingthat's supplyin' us power from the seaElectricity lines flow like veins to the townIn-between there's nothingbut grass and pebbles on the groundDo not answer the wild hereif you want to be found for the freeView the famous sunrise cutting half by the skyAnd the empty of the desertTeam of birds that swerve by and the land on the horizonIt's a new day and this is EnglandWhen it's time to escape from the heavier thingsThere is nothin' like washin' awayI find this country of mine get some bad reputationOf being cold and greyBut on the coast this south to the east follow groundI find serenity I've never foundThere's a peace, enough quiet in the silent barsThat can't be mirrored by anywhere elseHomes protruding from stones with their wood-coloured blackIt's got a car in the line, steam risin' out the shaftOne door at the frontand then just glass at the back for the viewAnd the blue is so brightyou'll need shades for your eyesAnd the cable to pull overTake a walk and feel light, everything will be fineIt's a new day and this is England
