Lyrics

[00:00.00] 作曲 : Sting
[00:01.00] 作词 : Sting
[00:34.50] This place has changed for good
[00:39.58] Your economic theory said it would
[00:51.26] It's hard for us to understand
[00:55.54] We can't give up our jobs the way we should
[01:06.82] Our blood has stained the coal
[01:11.50] We tunneled deep inside the nation's soul
[01:23.52] We matter more than pounds and pence
[01:27.70] Your economic theory makes no sense
[05:44.13][03:31.72][01:39.84] One day in a nuclear age
[05:48.59][03:36.56][01:44.35] They may understand our rage
[05:52.52][03:40.21][01:48.18] They build machines that they can't control
[05:56.17][03:44.06][01:51.69] And bury the waste in a great big hole
[06:00.39][03:48.17][01:56.35] Power was to become cheap and clean
[06:04.31][03:52.11][02:00.01] Grimy faces were never seen
[06:08.40][03:56.20][02:04.02] But deadly for twelve thousand years is carbon fourteen
[06:56.06][06:47.98][06:40.28][06:32.22][06:23.91][06:16.39][04:11.63][04:03.82][02:19.58][02:12.23] We work the black seam together
[02:26.89] The seam lies underground
[02:31.74] Three million years of pressure packed it down
[02:43.68] We walk through ancient forest lands
[02:47.93] And light a thousand cities with our hands
[02:59.19] Your dark satanic mills
[03:03.79] Have made redundant all our mining skills
[03:15.51] You can't exchange a six inch band
[03:20.07] For all the poisoned streams in Cumberland
[04:39.34] Our conscious lives run deep
[04:43.51] You cling onto your mountain while we sleep
[04:55.77] This way of life is part of me
[04:59.74] There is no price so only let me be
[05:11.54] And should the children weep
[05:15.96] The turning world will sing their souls to sleep
[05:27.69] When you have sunk without a trace
[05:32.15] The universe will suck me into place
