[00:00:00] Written by：Ray Davies

[00:00:39] Once upon a time

[00:00:41] In a faraway land

[00:00:43] Lived a villain called flash

[00:00:45] He was such a wicked man

[00:00:47] He terrorized the people

[00:00:50] He broke arms and crushed hands

[00:00:52] He ruled with a fist and he purchased all the land

[00:00:56] Then he plowed up the fields and cut down the trees

[00:01:01] For property speculation

[00:01:05] And he did it all for a pot of gold

[00:01:10] And for his own preservation

[00:01:15] The people were scared

[00:01:17] They didn't know where to turn

[00:01:19] They couldn't see any salvation

[00:01:24] From the hoods and the spivs

[00:01:26] And the crooked politicians

[00:01:28] Who were cheating and lying to the nation

[00:01:35] Save the fields and the trees

[00:01:37] And give them back to the nation

[00:01:42] Bring the government down

[00:01:44] A new leader must be found

[00:01:47] For the sake of preservation

[00:01:51] He said he did it to help us all

[00:01:55] And did it for the good of the nation

[00:02:00] But he did it for a pot of gold

[00:02:05] And for his own preservation

[00:02:23] Preservation preservation preservation

[00:02:54] When money is evil

[00:02:56] And power is corrupt

[00:02:59] The devil moves in and takes over

[00:03:03] Mr flash broke his word

[00:03:05] And now hes got to pay

[00:03:08] For his crimes and his lies and his evil ways

[00:03:14] And its gonna get rough

[00:03:19] And its gonna get rough

[00:03:21] Its a crime and a sin that no one can win

[00:03:25] In a story of self preservation

[00:03:29] Preservation
