about

Recorded live at Farmer Phil's Festival 2011.

lyrics

Part of the problem

I came in from the east
just followin' the jobs
My only loyalty's
my children's hungry mouths

I work twelve hours a day
and six on Sundays
and I'm still waitin' for my free house

If you're not part of the problem
you gotta be part of the solution
and you know what that solution's gonna be
The school of hard luck
has taught you sweet nothin'
You got your foot in the door
now you're slammin' it shut on me

People over here
stop you fishin' in the river
They seem to think it's wrong
if you eat the fish

They don't like the way I look
when I'm walkin' down their street
I wish they'd just leave me in peace

CHORUS

Angles, Saxons
Romans and Normans
Huguenots, Irish,
Jamaicans, Indians

They're all quite different
but they've got one thing in common
They hate us just because they got here first

CHORUS

My wife was shot dead
by a twelve-year-old boy
So what do I care
which side he was on?

I just try live my life
keep my head down, do my best
not to look into the eyes of anyone

CHORUS
