Lyrics A New England (Live BBC Track for Nicky Campbell Show) - Kirsty MacColl , Billy Bragg
I
was
21
years
when
I
wrote
this
song
I'm
22
now
but
I
won't
be
for
long
People
ask
me
when
will
I
grow
up
to
understand
Why
the
girls
I
knew
at
school
are
already
pushing
prams
I
loved
you
then
as
I
love
you
still
Though
I
put
you
on
a
pedestal
you
put
me
on
the
pill
I
don't
feel
bad
about
letting
you
go
I
just
feel
sad
about
letting
you
know
I
don't
want
to
change
the
world
I'm
not
looking
for
a
new
England
Are
you
looking
for
another
girl?
I
don't
want
to
change
the
world
I'm
not
looking
for
a
new
England
Are
you
looking
for
another
girl?
I
loved
the
words
you
wrote
to
me
But
that
was
bloody
yesterday
I
can't
survive
on
what
you
send
Every
time
you
need
a
friend
I
saw
two
shooting
stars
last
night
I
wished
on
them
but
they
were
only
satellites
It's
wrong
to
wish
on
space
hardware
I
wish,
I
wish,
I
wish
you'd
care
I
don't
want
to
change
the
world
I'm
not
looking
for
a
new
England
Are
you
looking
for
another
girl?
I
don't
want
to
change
the
world
I'm
not
looking
for
a
new
England
Are
you
looking
for
another
girl?
My
dreams
were
full
of
strange
ideas
My
mind
was
set
despite
your
fears
But
other
things
got
in
the
way
I
never
asked
that
boy
to
stay
Once
upon
a
time
at
home
I
sat
beside
the
telephone
Waiting
for
someone
to
pull
me
through
When
at
last
it
didn't
ring
I
knew
it
wasn't
you
I
don't
want
to
change
the
world
I'm
not
looking
for
a
new
England
Are
you
looking
for
another
girl?
I
don't
want
to
change
the
world
I'm
not
looking
for
a
new
England
Are
you
looking
for
another?
I
don't
want
to
change
the
world
I'm
not
looking
for
a
new
England
Are
you
looking
for
another
girl?
Looking
for
another
girl?
Looking
for
another
girl?
Looking
for
another
girl?
Girl?
Girl?
Girl?
