Was anyone able to catch the lyrics to the new Song „Merry old England“? Just seen it on YouTube, its sooooo beautiful. Can’t wait until its released ❤️

Here is what I can catch, if anyone has ideas on the rest let me know. Link here. x

I know, I know, I know you’ve been around

Just had to get to merry old England

I know, I know, I know you came the long way round

How you finding merry old England?

I know, I know, I know you’ve been around

Welcome to merry old England

I’ve seen you on the swings and the merry-go-rounds

How you finding merry old England?

The chalk cliffs once white

Decay in the sodium light

My, my, my, my, congrats on staying alive

Maybe they’ll catch you tonight

They’ll leave the landing in Dalby Square

But they’ll give you all that you dreamed of

A b-and-b and three square

Is it everything that you dreamed of?

Now they’re rushing from Albania

Welcome to merry old England

Syria, Iraq, Ukraine

How you finding merry old England

The chalk cliffs once white

Decay in the sodium light

My, my, my, my, congrats on staying alive

Hope they don’t catch you tonight

I know, I know, I know you’ve been around

Had to get to merry old England

I’ve seen you on the swings and on the merry-go-rounds

How you finding merry old England?

I know, I know, I know you came the long way round

How you finding merry old England?

I’ve seen you on the swings and on the merry-go-rounds

Welcome to merry old England

The chalk cliffs once white

Decay in the sodium light

My, my, my, my, congrats on staying alive

Hope they don’t catch you tonight

Gotta get to merry old England

I don’t need a ticket mate

Don’t your visa mate

No I don’t need a ticket mate, oh no

(Can’t catch the next few lines, something about climbing walls )

You know what you can do with your visa mate

Welcome to merry old England

“Then one day in November 2001, he hung up a noose. ‘The thing is - the double pop ridiculousness of it - is that it’s an old noose that I’d saved from a Smiths show I went to when I was a teenager. Morrissey had thrown it into the audience [at Panic’s call to 'hang the DJ’] and I ended up with it.’ But instead of stepping up onto a chair, Coxon thought of his new baby daughter Pepper. In that brief moment of clarity, he went to her mother (his ex-girlfrined) and asked for help. Now the noose is back in the shoebox that he’s kept it in since that Smiths show.”
