                  Bb                        C
The great British mistake was looking for a way out,
                F                        Bb
Was getting complacent, not noticing the pulse was racing.
        Bb                   C                       D
The mistake was fighting the change, was staying the same.

It couldn't adapt so it couldn't survive.,

Something had to give.
                  Bb                      Bb
The people take a downhill slide into the gloom.

Into the dark recesses of their minds.

  I swoop over your city like a bird.

  I climb the high branches and observe.

  I swoop, I climb,
Am
 I cling,
Bm                              C  Bb A
   I suck, I swallow you whole.

Verse 3

F              Bb                              C
String out the drip-feed, they're losing their world,
                     F                      Bb
They're losing their hard boys and magazine girls.
       Bb               C                 D
Advert illegal, T.V. as outlaw, motive as spell.

Verse 4

                      Bb                   C

It's people against things and not against each other.
           Bb                 C               D
Out of the pre-pack, into the fear, into themselves.

The genie's out of the bottle, call in the magician.
                    Bb
They didn't mean to free him, devil behind them,
Bb           C                              D
devil in the mirror, chained to their right hands.

They'll have to come to terms now, they'll take it out somehow.

They'll blame it all on something.

The British mistake - when will it be over?

How can they avoid it, avoid it, avoid it?
