letra de the last of england - patrick wolf
[verse 1]
billy came home from the war
to appledore, drifting in the carpark of
the second church to be sold since spring
and in his redlining is a wing
a feather to the throttle, god
the absent father who stopped calling
[pre-chorus]
i got bored to madness that june
spitting at the sun
hollowing the moon
[chorus]
and then we were the last of england
rotten to the core
when came a fireblight, hallelujah
ripped us shore to shore
[verse 2]
and what we lost that year
came clеar in the emigration of
whose conscription
not callеd out in the sound mirror
but i was cruising, gawain in the mist
there as we kissed
up against the pendle hill oak
the green king
deep in doggerland woke
[pre-chorus]
i got born into this sadness
just like you
cried the white horse of the sun
to the inverted moon
[chorus]
and there we were, the last of england
rotten to the core
when came a fireblight, hallelujah
ripped us shore to shore
[bridge]
and by mabon
were you dancing the broom?
by the light of the burning pier
or were you gone?
[instrumental break]
[outro]
to the last
rotten to the core
