trust fund - new university lyrics
when you were seven they flattened the school
said they’d rebuild it but what did they do?
put you in cabins and kept you sincere
paraded you round, the centenary year
when you were eleven they knocked down the pool
when you were thirteen they cancelled the bus
a lifetime surrounded by rubble and dust
a lifetime surrounded by rubble and dust
this new university they built for us
outside the college, the word would go round
haunting the street lights we make for the downs
steven and isaac, the best of the worst
carrying out our invisible church
how we believed in it, chapter and verse
when you were fourteen you travelled by ambulance
much to the neighbours’ disgust
dead to the world as the neighbours discussed
the new university they built for us
say you can’t make it, say you aren’t well
excuses that ring on the tongue like a bell
of those who were raised in the gap in+between
all that there will be, and all that has been
haunting the valley, haunting the screen
haunting the platform, haunting the dream
haunting our elders, as they haunted us
haunting the young if they’d ever look up
they would laugh at us now, our unwavering trust
in the new university they built for us
