1
When it happened we walked through all the estates, from
2
Manchester right to, er, Newcastle. In Darlington, helped a large
3
man on his own chase off some kids who were chucking bricks and
4
stuff through his flat window. She had a way with people like that.
5
Thanked us and we moved on.
6
'Junior Choice' played one morning. The song was 'English
7
Scheme.' Mine. They'd changed it with a grand piano and turned
8
it into a love song. How they did it I don't know. DJs had
9
worsened since the rising. Elaborating on nothing in praise of
10
the track with words they could hardly pronounce, in telephone
11
voices.
12
I was mad, and laughed at the same time. The West German
13
government had brought over large yellow trains on Teeside docks.
14
In Edinburgh. I stayed on my own for a few days, wandering about
15
in the, er, pissing rain, before the Queen Mother hit town.
16
I'm Joe Totale
17
The yet unborn son
18
The North will rise again
19
The North will rise again
20
Not in 10,000 years
21
Too many people cower to criminals
22
And government crap
23
The estates stick up like stacks
24
The North will rise again X4
25
Look where you are
26
Look where you are
27
The future death of my father
28
Shift!
29
Tony was a business friend
30
Of RT XVIII
31
And was an opportunist man
32
Come, come hear my story
33
How he set out to corrupt and destroy
34
This future rising
35
The business friend came round today
36
With teeth clenched, he grabbed my neck
37
I threw him to the ground
38
His blue shirt stained red
39
The north will rise again.
40
He said you are mistaken, friend
41
I kicked him out of the home
42
Too many people cower to criminals
43
And that government pap
44
When all it takes is hard slap
45
But out the window burned the roads
46
There were men with bees on sticks
47
The fall had made them sick
48
A man with butterflies on his face
49
His brother threw acid in his face
50
His tattoos were screwed
51
The streets of Soho did reverberate
52
With drunken Highland men
53
Revenge for Culloden dead
54
The North had rose again
55
But it would turn out wrong
56
The North will rise again
57
So R. Totale dwells underground
58
Away from sickly grind
59
With ostrich head-dress
60
Face a mess, covered in feathers
61
Orange-red with blue-black lines
62
That draped down to his chest
63
Body are a tentacle mess
64
And light blue plant-heads
65
TV showed Sam Chippendale
66
No conception of what he'd made
67
The Arndale had been razed
68
Shop staff knocked off their ladders
69
Security guards hung from moving escalators
70
And now that is said
71
Tony seized the control
72
He built his base in Edinburgh
73
Had on his hotel wall
74
A hooded friar on a tractor
75
He took a bluey and he called Totale
76
Who said, "the North has rose again"
77
But it will turn out wrong
78
When I was in cabaret
79
I vowed to defend
80
All of the English clergy
81
Though they have done wrong
82
And the fall has begun
83
This has got out of hand
84
I will go for foreign aid
85
But he Tony, laughed down the phone
86
Said "Totale go back to bed"
87
The North has rose today
88
And you can stuff your aid!
89
And you can stuff your aid!
