Brick England

Evening When the sun begins to sink Behind the smoke There's a burning red glow All around Watching As the colour starts to fade And the darkness Seems to rise out of the ground Of the ground Walls, rise and fall And now that buildings talk In the city Brick England They build them up And then they Knock 'em down To put up another Brick England Evening Creeps beyond the terraced walls Up the church steeples And the chimney pots so high So high Watching The moon is lost behind black clouds And the darkness Seems to crawl up to the sky To the sky Walls, rise and fall And now that buildings talk In the city Brick England They build them up And then they Knock 'em down To put up another Brick England England They build them up And then they Knock 'em down To put up another Brick England Brick Lane in the rain Road closed Diversion Snake of tourists meandering under grey cloud In brick England --- Brick England - Jean Michel Jarre and Pet Shop Boys
