lyrics

I was 12 years old the last time
But the laws have all moved on
A striking family gets nothing
And even less when it's gone
She'll rip the heart from this country
There's nothing more to this town
Than bricks in the middle of nowhere
And a pit that she's closing down

Chorus:
You can get six cups from a tea bag
You can grow on a window sill
We can eat together on Sundays
To spread out the leccy bill
There's nothing much in that bank book
But I'll stretch it as far as I can
I'll show her who's the 'Iron Lady'
I'm standing by my man

I always ask for the cheap cuts
Like every house on the street
It's half a pound of gristle
For half an ounce of meat
When the kids complain that they're hungry
I tell em we'll eat when we win
Then I give em what's on my plate
Cos I'd rather starve than give in
