The Early Days of a Better Nation - Oysterboys
Written by：Telfer/ Jones

I fall asleep with the TV on

Wake with an ache it's another week gone
And consider how my light was spent
Where it was that the real thing went
I asked a wise man for advice
Told him once and I told him twice

My life is one long damage limitation

He smacked me hard around the head

Handed me a card that read
Work like you were
Living in the early days of a better nation

Work like you were
Living in the early days of a better nation

Play that tune again
I cried

It's dead and gone the band replied
But as they slowly tried it through

The hands remembered what they had to do
Give it poke and give it licks
The name of the tune is Laying The Bricks

I Stood outside the Albert Hall

Wept and wrote upon the wall

Work like you were
Living in the early days of a better nation

Work like you were
Living in the early days of a better nation

We take the water to the tree
She says
Now do the same for me
It takes your sweat as well as art

To dig a channel for the human heart
There is no garden of delight
Unless you w**d it day or night

Don't leave your life a lifelong long vacation

I hear her whisper when we meet
And when I crawl between the sheets
She says
Work like you were
Living in the early days of a better nation

Work like you were
Living in the early days of a better nation

Living in the early days of a better nation

Living in the early days

Living in the early days

Living in the early days of a better nation
Were living in the early days of a better nation

Were living in the early days of a better nation

Were living in the early days of a better nation

Were living in the early days of a better nation
