《Internal Exile (Original Version)(Original Version)》歌词

[00:00:12] I saw a blue umbrella in Princes Street Gardens

[00:00:15] Heading out west for the Lothian Road

[00:00:18] An evening news stuffed deep in his pocket

[00:00:21] Wrapped up in his problems to keep away the cold

[00:00:25] Grierson's spirit haunts the dockyards

[00:00:28] Where the only men working are on documentary crews

[00:00:31] Shooting film as the lines get longer

[00:00:34] As the seams run out as the oil runs dry

[00:00:37] Hey there laddie internal exile

[00:00:41] When will you realise we've got to let go

[00:00:43] Hey there lassie internal exile

[00:00:47] When will you realise we've got to let go

[00:00:55] (Got a go)

[00:01:02] Starlings wheeling round Georgian spires

[00:01:05] And the fires of Grangemouth burn the skies

[00:01:08] A lion sleeps in a tenement close

[00:01:11] In a country that's tired and deaf to his roar

[00:01:14] Hey there laddie internal exile

[00:01:18] When will you realise we've got to let go

[00:01:20] Hey there lassie internal exile

[00:01:24] When will you realise we've got to let go

[00:01:30] We've got to let go

[00:01:33] Realise we've got to let go got go now

[00:01:46] They bury a wasteland deep in the wilderness

[00:01:49] Poison the soil and reap the harvest

[00:01:51] Of blind indifference greed and apathy

[00:01:55] Sowed way back in our history

[00:01:58] The fish are few the harbours empty

[00:02:01] The keels now rot on our oil slicked shores

[00:02:04] The sheep are gone the farms deserted

[00:02:07] We're out of sight and we're out of mind

[00:02:10] Hey there laddie internal exile

[00:02:14] When will you realise we've got to let go

[00:02:17] Hey there lassie internal exile

[00:02:20] When will you realise we've got to let go

[00:02:26] Realise we've got to let go

[00:02:30] Time to go time to go

[00:02:35] Like our fathers before us we've eyes for America

[00:02:39] Dream of a new life on foreign shores

[00:02:42] But wherever we go we'll always know

[00:02:45] That the land we stand on is never our own

[00:02:48] Hey there laddie internal exile

[00:02:51] When will you realise we've got to let go

[00:02:54] Hey there lassie internal exile

[00:02:57] When will you realise we've got to go

[00:03:03] Oh internal exile since we've got to go

[00:03:09] Internal exile we've got to go

[00:03:15] Internal exile since we've got to go

[00:03:22] We've got to go got to go

[00:03:27] Internal exile

[00:03:31] Internal exile

[00:03:34] Internal exile we are
