We could have been poets, something strong

Verse 
We could have been workmen, true artisans	
Real strong people, women and man
We could have been heroes sailing the sea
But England's empire doesn't matter to me
I know it's gone, it's gone and I feel free
That's why...

Chorus (E  F#  A  E)

You know I'm pointing the finger at dear old England, does anybody care? 

Verse 
We could have been saviours
We could have been priests
We could have been something strong and neat
We could have been tidy, we could have been clean
But England's empire is no longer on the scene

And humanity is not so green Alright
Could have been something on the scene
You realize humanity is not so green
That's why...

Chorus (E  F#  A  E)

Verse 

Well now I'm sleeping in my bed
Love got a cool and clear head
I see the future, I see it all
And I don't belong to any empire
I'm not going to crawl
And I don't belong to your empire
I'm not going to crawl
That's why...

Chorus (E  F#  A  E)
