(Anderson / Howe / Wakeman / Bruford / Bacon)
2
In 1954 the British Government, in order to maintain the balance
3
of power between East and West, exploded their first atom bomb at
4
Woomera. They failed to contact all of the Aborigine peoples at
5
the time. The Aborigines still call this 'the day of the cloud.'
6
A new born land
7
Dreaming by the sky
8
The scent of colours
9
In the flowers
10
Believe it's small
11
In many ways
12
It holds the key
13
That divides the super powers
14
This road is never lonely
15
To ENGLAND they are tied
16
They were blasted by the Silver Cloud
17
There were blasted to the wall alive
18
This place, this place ain't big enough for stars and stripes
19
Counting out the statesmen
20
Bungling one by one
21
Spelling out this segregation
22
So the catchword be
23
Looking after number one
24
They release the fear inside
25
Are human after all
26
So begins our dream time
27
They hunted like the dinosaur
28
We the pure
29
They the savage innocent
30
How we crush our existence after all
31
Come on
32
For without them
33
We are lonely
34
This England we are blind
35
Like all the Empires crumble
36
Will surely change the tide
37
This place ain't big enough for red and white
38
This place ain't big enough for stars and stripes
39
This place - This place
40
This place is theirs, by their birthright
41
This place
42
The sun gives better reasons
43
United we are blind
44
To deliver our existence
45
Keep it up
46
Keep it up
47
This human tide, give it some
48
We can break the ties
49
Of recent changes
50
Know the ones who
51
Hold the key
52
Singing out the congregation
53
We are them and they are we
54
This place ain't big enough for red and white
55
This place ain't big enough for stars and stripes
56
This place
57
This place
58
This place is theirs by their birthright
Yes - I've seen all good people - Lyrics
