Текст песни: Big Smoke + перевод

Another morning in the city

Another morning in the gritty, and so, and so

Another young man got stabbed on the pavement

Then another young man never made it to the station

Tell his mother why she’s waitin'

Another morning in the city

Another morning in the gritty, and so, and so

Did you see the smoke comin' out of the flames here?

Then they tried to take his story out the papers

They’d be dead, but no more person locked away, yeah

And so, and so it’s…

Still seein' all the blood in these lies, mud in these lies

6 o’clock news doesn’t cover these crimes

Cut corners and cut slice

Cut the porridge with no chai

No conviction and no distinction

But too much wrong, there ain’t much right

And if we honestly look by

It’s feeling great in this blue sky

And the rain hits harder today

I see us gone from the front page to the ten page

Back to where no one relates to the pain

No one relates to the pain

Does anyone ever remember the flame?

Remember the flames?

Another morning in the city

Another morning in the gritty, and so, and so

Another young man got stabbed on the pavement

Then another young man never made it to the station

Tell his mother why she’s waitin'

Another morning in the city

Another morning in the gritty, and so, and so

Did you see the smoke comin' out of the flames here?

Then they tried to take his story out the papers

They’d be dead, but no more person locked away, yeah

And so, and so it’s…

Where did all the care go? Where’s our halo?

Disillusioned kids on the main road

On harder, then on light

Bloody martyrs and blue lives

Did you see on the timeline?

No electric and no light

Hold tight now 'cause it’s a cold night

We’re on the pipe now

And if you don’t like, they tell us pipe down, see

I keep dreaming of better days, dreamin' of better ways

When we can trust anyone with no worry, can just go away

But for now I’m just sittin' on the chain, watchin' everybody’s face

Pointing to the floor for another day

And can they even see the flames?

And can they even see the flames?

And can they even see the flames?

Flames, so

So, and so

Another morning in the city

Another morning in the gritty, and so, and so

Another young man got stabbed on the pavement

Then another young man never made it to the station

Tell his mother why she’s waitin'

Another morning in the city

Another morning in the gritty, and so, and so

Did you see the smoke comin' out of the flames here?

Then they tried to take his story out the papers

They’d be dead, but no more person locked away, yeah

And so, and so it’s…
