I am a victim of history
An empire child wrapped in civility
But only mad dogs and Englishmen
Would believe that one
For from her shores there grew a great nation
The Ronald Coleman humble heroes
With the manic stares and night club glares
Mind yer toes
While corn beef bombs
Were mashing British tommies
The cries from home could turn your blood cold
Forget the victims
Forget appearances
Mind yer toes
I can survive as long as you are with me
I will skip up and down the pastures green
Forget the animals
Because I love you
I love you
An empire child wrapped in civility
But only mad dogs and Englishmen
Would believe that one
For from her shores there grew a great nation
The Ronald Coleman humble heroes
With the manic stares and night club glares
Mind yer toes
While corn beef bombs
Were mashing British tommies
The cries from home could turn your blood cold
Forget the victims
Forget appearances
Mind yer toes
I can survive as long as you are with me
I will skip up and down the pastures green
Forget the animals
Because I love you
I love you
