Fairport Convention - Jewel in the Crown lyrics
We are a proud land, we stand for freedom we've got the franchise, on how to lead them we've got the history, and books to prove it give us the mountain, and we will move it we rule the waves, and, the seven seas, we bring the mighty, to their knees we offer hope, and inspiration a fine example, to lesser nations we are Britannia, jewel in the crown we brought a system, to the masses divide a nation, into classes it's in our breeding, and on our faces, at least we're all born, knowing our places we stay within our, social borders we only take what, our class affords us it doesn't matter, that it's not even this is the nature, of the demon we are Britannia, jewel in the crown [chorus] we are Britannia we crowned an empire we came and conquered we tore their borders down we need no conscience god is on our side we are Britannia jewel in the crown we are your friendly, liberators we'll free you countries, from your dictators for a small slice, of your oil wells we'll send our boys in, with their bombshells we are a refuge, for the needy always caring, never greedy whatever gesture, could be finer we've given Hong Kong, back to China we are Britannia, jewel in the crown [chorus] jewel in the crown jewel in the crown jewel in the crown |
