lyrics

Home alone
He couldn't take the pain
He went to the station and
Got on the train
Kept his mouth shut
Didn't complain
Spent 24 hours in the pouring rain

David Shaw
He knew what to do
As he sat of the back of
This eternal queue
A glimpse of the coffin
A lick of the boot
Sycophants marching
Two by two

He couldn't live with himself
David Shaw

Said goodbye to
The world he believed in
Flatcaps and tweed
England's dreaming
A statue of the past
That defined him before
Being white and British
Ain't enough anymore
For David Shaw
It was his last stand
The queue represented
A promised land
Dreams of empire
Laid to rest
Singing Rule Britannia
With his dying breath
