Here Come the People in Grey

Lyrics for Here Come the People in Grey

I got a letter this morning With some serious news That's gone and ruined my day The borough surveyor's Used compulsory purchase To acquire my domain They're gonna pull up the floors They're gonna knock down the walls They're gonna dig up the drains Here come the people in grey They're gonna take me away To Lord knows only where But I'm so unprepared I got no time to pack And I got nothing to wear Here come the people in grey To take me away Me and my baby gonna get on a train That's gonna take us away We're gonna live in a tent We're gonna pay no more rent We're gonna pay no more rates We're gonna live in a field We're gonna buy me gun To keep the policemen away I'm gonna pass me a brand new resolution I'm gonna fight me a one man revolution, someway Gonna beat those people in grey But here come the people in grey To take me away Here come the people in grey To take me away People in grey have gone and taken away My right to voice my complaint Her Majesty's Government have sent me a form I must complete it today But it's making me blue Don't wanna tell all my secrets to The people in grey Gonna pass me a brand new resolution Gonna fight me a one man revolution, someway Gonna start my rebellion today But here come the people in grey To take me away Oh, Lord, those people in grey I gotta get back at those bad people in grey Here come the people in grey To take me away
