(Dawning Of A) New Era (BBC In Concert) - The Specials

This is the dawning of a new era!

This is the dawning of a new era!

I met a girl from area three

She told me that she worked in a chicken factory

This is the dawning of a new era!

By two o’clock we were 'Brahms & Liszt'

I had to walk her home through area six

This is the dawning of a new era!

Sticks and stones may break my bones

In area six they throw bottles and bricks and kicks

This is the dawning of a new era!

I climbed the stairs to the fourteenth floor

The key won’t fit the door

This is the dawning of a new era!

She said she had a beautiful flat

We had to sleep on the mat

This is the dawning of a new era!

Woke up and thought «This ain’t exactly heaven»

Oh shit, this is area seven

This is the dawning of a new era!

This is the dawning of a new era!

This is the dawning of a new era!

This is so boring, it’s a new era!
