  • New Model Army New Model Army - 1984 Lyrics

           

    The vans they come in convoys now, stealing through the dawn
    Silent in the countryside in the hills up to the north
    There's road blocks on the Meden bridge
    There's click, click clicking on the phone
    They're sealing off our villages, sealing off our homes
    This ain't some tin-pot story arriving from a distant shore
    But our own sweet, green and pleasant land in 1984

    Her father crossed the battle lines in the first months of the war
    She frowns down at the soup kitchen - she doesn't have a father anymore
    It's cold in the early mornings, standing with your mates
    Staring at the thick blue line armed and ready at the gates
    This ain't some tin-pot story arriving from a distant shore
    But our own sweet, green and pleasant land in 1984

    The servants of our great nation
    Have lied in the name of us all
    While the officers of peace and order
    Are busy breaking every law
    There's hundreds on trumped-up charges
    Hundreds on the streets
    The future of our villages
    Sown with bitter seeds
    And hatred starts to rumble where there was no hate before
    In our own sweet green and pleasant land in 1984
    Nobody wanted to see the blood
    As the blue lights flash through in the night
    But all the words fell on deaf ears
    And now the blind frustration bites
    Two nations under one crown divided more and more
    In our own sweet green and pleasant land in 1984
