lyrics

THE FLAGS OF DISCONTENT

He wanted to stand from the crowd
A life of crime was what he found
Stole a 5 gear Cavalier
But he left too many clues
So sure that he knew the score
But now he pays his dues
Gonna get it, gonna get it

The Flags Of Discontent
Are raised up so high
They fly for you and me
The Flags Of Discontent
Can’t get satisfied
They fly for you and me
Fly for all humanity

Handcuffed and reading out his rights
In custody for 700 nights
Just a kid who got inspired
To turn a hand to crime
Now his head is on a stake
In Borstal doing time
Gonna get it, gonna get it
He wants Utopia but it’s a sham
At least he’s on “Crimewatch” once again

The white flag surrender
Those teenage kicks erased
The white flag surrender
Counting down the wasted days
The white flag surrender
As they gang up in his room
The white flag surrender
Freedom can’t come too soon

The Flags Of Discontent
Are raised up so high
They fly for you and me
The Flags Of Discontent
Can’t get satisfied
They fly for you and me
Fly for all humanity
