    Beneath the old iron bridges, across the victorian parks,
    & all the frightened people running home before dark,
    Past the Saturday morning cinema
    that lies crumbling to the ground,
    & the piss stinking shopping centre in the new side of town.
    I've come to smell the seasons change, & watch the city,
    as the sun goes down again.

    Here comes another winter, of long shadows & high hopes,
    Here comes another winter, waitin for utopia,
    waitin for hell to freeze over.

    This is the land, where nothing changes,
    the land of red buses & blue blooded babies,
    This is the place, where pensioners are raped,
    & the hearts are being cut, from the welfare state,
    Let the poor drink the milk, while the rich eat the honey,
    Let the bums count their blessings, while they count the money.

    So many people, can't express what's on their minds,
    Nobody knows them & nobody ever will,
    Until their backs are broken & their dreams are stolen,
    & they can't get what they want, then they're gonna get angry!
    Well it ain't written in the papers, but its written on the walls
    The way this country is divided to fall,
    So the cranes are moving on the skyline--
    Trying to knock down--this town
    But the stains on the heartland, can never be removed,
    from this country, that's sick, sad, and confused.

    Here comes another winter, of long shadows & high hopes,
    Here comes another winter, waitin for utopia,
    waitin for hell to freeze over.

    The ammunition's being passed, and the lords been praised,
    But the wars on the televisions will never be explained,
    All the bankers gettin sweaty, beneath their white collars,
    As the pound in our pocket, turns into a dollar.

    This is the 51st state of the U. S. A.

    Heartland from The The right? Infected. Good Album.

    5 years of living in the states and its starting to take hold.

    Earlier today I pronounced the word 'Status' Stat-us rather than state-us.

    I'm sorry.

    That's just not good enough.

    I can't speak to that group, but my general feeling is

    Equal rights/not getting harrassed/shot by police>A delayed flight

    It's been going on for 50 years, the question is almost redundant.

    The demo at LCY was about pollution in inner city areas. Unfortunately the British BLM will do more damage to the serious subject of equality in this country by their twattish behaviour.

    I'd have shot the cnts as terrorists swimming across the water to illegally enter an airport

    Act like a terrorist get shot like one. Protest at places that impact on people who are not the problem you get what you deserve

    The pictures i saw were white people protesting on behalf of black people?
    understand that back in the late 60's and early 70's about apartheid in South Africa. But WTF is it about now in Britain.
    It's so Patronising.
