Dolores Keane - New Deal Lyrics

Lyrics New Deal - Dolores Keane



They promised us a world so different
No more want and poverty
No more lies and cold indifference
A brand new world for you and me
But their silver tongues and golden voices
Filled us with their fantasy
And now we're left with the same old choices
Take the plane and cross the sea
Their words were full of hopes and dreams
Our ears were full of sympathy
Their minds were full of tricks and schemes
A brand new deal for you and me
They'd save our cities from decay
And bring us all prosperity
They'd put things right without delay
With a brand new deal for you and me
They said our children would inherit
An end to inequality
Endeavour would be paid on inherit
A brand new deal for you and me
They said they'd save our lakes and rivers
This ancient land and rolling sea
Like a guardian angel who delivers
A brand new deal for you and me
But their silver tongues and golden voices
Fooled us with their fantasy
And now we're left with the same old choices
Take the plane and cross the sea
