captain ska - the windrush lyrics

Loading...

[intro – announcer voice]
their new life had really begun. the government’s att-tude on the matter will remain liberal and humane… liberal and humane…

[verse 1]
came in peace by the boatload
said the road was glittered with gold
how did that story unfold?
we work hard ’til we’re grey and old
now you wanna kick us out the back door
and rub salt in the wounds? that’s poor
debate in parliament
broken promises
never shows love, that’s for sure

[chorus]
the windrush
make the government blush
we refuse to just hush
the windrush
there’s no government trust
politics – them against us
the windrush
your words fall on deaf ears
actions are overly sus’
the windrush
we have to be tough
and keep unity between us

[bridge – amber rudd samples]
respect
respect

respect
respect
respect
there is absolutely no question about their right to remain
and i’m sorry for any confusion
respect

[verse 2]
you invited us in the first place
the windrush leaves a bad taste
your behaviour is a disgrace
families you want to displace
racism’s all in our face
we work hard without a moment’s grace
from 1948
’til this day
policies tried to limit our sp-ce

[chorus]
the windrush
make the government blush
we refuse to just hush
the windrush
there’s no government trust
politics – them against us
the windrush
your words fall on deaf ears
actions are overly sus’
the windrush
we have to be tough
and keep unity between us

the windrush
make the government blush
we refuse to just hush
the windrush
there’s no government trust
politics – them against us
the windrush
your words fall on deaf ears
actions are overly sus’
the windrush
we have to be tough
and keep unity between us
and keep unity between us
