Union Jack Lyrics by John Waite

Union Jack Lyrics

    Missin' at school
    Bustin' the rules
    Hates everything in sight
    Needs some new shoes
    Dad's on the booze
    She's never there
    Far away kid
    All on his own
    Can't tell the wrong from right
    Thin as a rake
    Tough as a nail tonight
    Tonight
    Here are your hopes for the future you'll see
    If you hang 'round the neck of a loser like me
    There's no one else in your life
    You don't need anyone
    Come with me in the night
    I will give you the matches
    I will make you complete
    Won't you please come with me
    I won't ask you again
    I can give you the hopes of a younger man
    In the night we can hear
    I'm your friend and what's more
    I will give you what you've been looking for
    Yes i can give you what you've been looking for
    Should i run
    Should i take it
    Should i go or should i stay?
    Who side am i on in this game that we play
    I wanna be somebody someday
    Living my life away
    And i can't find a job
    I can't pay the rent
    Police are always breathing down my neck
    And there's no way out
    There's no way out no more
    Under this flag
    We're all union jacks
    And there's no home for the brave
    And there's no way back
    We are the obeyer
    We are the law
    In stained boots
    And navy blue
    Hello hello hello
    With fire in my heart and you along beside me
    We'll burn down all the schools
    That taught us there¹s nothing better than
    To live by all the rules
    Made by the ruling classes
    So the scales of justice tip
    In the favor of the government
    Under this flag
    We're all union jacks
    And there's no home for the brave
    And there's no way back
    We are the obeyer
    We are the law
    In stained boots
    And navy blue
    Hello hello hello
    With fire in my heart and you along beside me
    We'll burn down all the schools
    That taught us there¹s nothing better than
    To live by all the rules
    Made by the ruling classes
    So the scales of justice tip
    In the favor of the government
    Under this flag
    We're all union jacks
    And there's no home for the brave
    And there's no way back
    Under this flag
    We're all union jacks
    And there's no home for the brave
    And there's no way back
    Tonight
    Here are your hopes for a future you'll see
    You're like me
    We're all union jacks
