English Beat Stand Down Margaret Lyrics

Stand Down Margaret Lyrics

I said I see no joy, I see only sorrow

I see no chance of your bright new tomorrow



So stand down Margaret, stand down please, stand down

I say stand down Margaret, stand down please, stand down



Stand down Margaret, stand down please, stand down Margaret

I say stand down Margaret, stand down please, stand down



I sometimes wonder if I'll ever get the chance

Just to sing to my children in a holiday jam

Our lives seem petty in your cold gray hands

Would you give a second thought, would you ever give a damn?



I doubt it

Stand down Margaret

Everybody shout it

Stand down Margaret



Work, white law

Shell shock, world war



Stand down please

Stand down Margaret, stand down please, stand down Margaret

I say stand down Margaret, stand down please, stand down Margaret

Stand down Margaret, stand down please, stand down Margaret

I say stand down Margaret, stand down please, stand down Margaret
