Kevin Devine – Black Boys on Mopeds Lyrics
Artist: Kevin Devine
Song: Black Boys on Mopeds
Margaret Thatcher on TV
Shocked by the deaths that took place in Beijing
It seems strange that she would be offended
The same orders were given by her
I’ve said this before now
You said I was childish and you’ll say it now
If they hated me they will hate you
England’s not the mythical land of Madame George and roses
It’s the home of police who kill black boys on mopeds
And I love my boy so that’s why I’m leaving
I don’t want him to be awarе that there’s
Any such thing as grieving
Young mothеr down at Smithfield
It’s 5 am, looking for food for her kids
In her arms she holds three cold babies
And the first word that they learned was “please”
These are dangerous days
To say what you feel is to lay your own grave
If you were of the world they would love you
England’s not the mythical land of Madame George and roses
It’s the home of police who kill blacks boys on mopeds
And I love my boy so that’s why I’m leaving
I don’t want him to be aware that there’s
Any such thing as grieving
Mmm-
