While you were out
spreading the gospel
According to whatever
you believed in at the time
Her majesty's axemen cameth
and closed the hospital
The birthplace
of out bonny baby Brian
Yesterday they took away
our bus stop
Today they'll try and take
our happy home
Tomorrow I'll be burned
as a witch
for playing punk rock
You picked a fine time to leave me
on my own
I know
that what you don't know
doesn't hurt you
And the only time
you get homesick's
when you get home
But while you were out
our whole future was in doubt
So get your finger out
and phone
Please phone
While joyriders filmed by sky
ram and raid and drink and drive
Homicidal passers by
leave unattended bags
outside our home
While you were out
our whole future was in doubt
You better get your finger out
PHONE!
It's simple
lift the receiver
listen for the dialling tone
when your hear that dialling tone
pick a number, any number
SPEAK TO ME!
Please phone
