Cold Heart of England - Steve Knightley

Hard winds are blowing

Down the high street today

Just look around you

Family firms are selling up

Moving away

Now the names that surround you

Though they're familiar

You don't feel at home

'Cos you could be in Kansas London or Rome

All closing down in these small country towns

In the cold heart of England

And you don't see the stars

When the lights overspill

It's too bright and too strong

From hundreds of homes on the sides of the hill

Just where did we come from

Now we've been told to build ten thousand more

Let's cover this countryside we came here for

Trees coming down on the edge of the town

In the cold heart of England

So it's Saturday night

With the boys in the square

The cars and the fights

Broken glass everywhere

I've no picture postcard

To send you from there

It's the cold heart of England

So it's grey supermarkets

Instead of green fields

Will pay all our wages

We're choking in traffic

Tied to the wheel

Like cattle in cages

These market forces

Swept us along

Now we've arrived and

The old market's gone

Feeling let down in this

Small country town

In the cold heart of England

And if you work within limits

The law will allow

You'll find the land's under concrete

Instead of the plough

Where are you swampy

Cos' we need you right now

In the cold heart of England

It's the cold heart of England
