The Indelicates - Jerusalem lyrics

In a compound on the edge of town Security to keep the outside out You and your friends have been discussing how It seems rebellious to vote conservative now And your mind's so sharp And your eyes so bright You shine in love, you are born annointed You mean so well And you'll hurt so hard When you come to be disappointed But I am never going home again And I will build Jerusalem Don't know about us, but I know about Them And we will build Jerusalem Jerusalem You know exactly how clever sounds The soft consonants and rounded vowels You know the land that your labour's earned Your hypotheses have been confirmed We all love the smiths And we dig the clash But the smell of leather is intoxicating We're all brilliant minds We're genii We excel at drama and formal debating But I am never going home again And I will build Jerusalem Don't know about us, but I know about Them And we will build Jerusalem Jerusalem You can take your burning gold You can take your swords and spears You can take your lamb of god You can take these deadly years You can win and win And win again The dice are loaded you'll never miss But you can't build Jerusalem Cause you don't know what building is
