English Boy — текст песни (Townshend Pete)

I`m an English boy
I was brought up right
Hold me down
And I will bite
I know no fear
I serve with joy
I`m proud to be here
An English boy
I feel like a stray dog
Blurred like a movie
You say you`ve come to arrest me
But you`re just trying to test me
I`m bored with your prejudice
Spreading like a fever
Your promises to train me
Are just attempts to restrain me
I`m an English boy
Precisely made
Pin me down
I am not afraid
I show no fear
I will serve with joy
I`m proud to be here
An English boy
Use me like a headline
Cut pieces to pieces
I`m balack on the tube liine
Red on the touch-line
Freezing the future
Stopping every stopwatch
You say we`re moving like an oil slick
Thicker than a house brick
I`m an English boy
I was brought up right
If you raise your dress
Then I will bite
My voice is clear
I got perfect poise
Good to be down here
With all the English boys
And I don`t know where I am now
Or where I`m gonna go
I just keep going round and round on the circle line
Like some demented kind of fool in the mirror
Trying to avoid paying for my ticket
I`m a lsot soul
I read about myself in the newspapers
I`m a pig
I`m a thug
I`ve got nowhere to go but down
Feel like I`m kicking at a dead man
Kicking in the chorus
I`m broken by hatred
While politicians just ignore us
You never gave me any value
You didn`t give me any reason
There`s no tools and no toys
For any English boys
I`m an English boy
I was brought up right
Hold me down
And I will bite
I know no fear
I serve with joy
I`m proud to be here
An English boy
I`m an English boy
No tools, no toys for any English boys
