Subject: CRD:Housemartins-Flag Day
Flag Day
Bbmaj7 A
Too many Florence Nightingales
Dm F
Not enough Robin Hoods
Bbmaj7 Am
Too many halos not enough heroes
Dm
Coming up with the goods
Bbmaj7 A
So you thought you'd like to change the world
Dm F
Decided to stage a jumble sale
Bbmaj7 Dm
For the poor for the poor
Bbmaj7 A
Its a waste of time if you know what they mean
Dm F
Try shaking a box in front of the Queen
Bbmaj7 Am
'Cause her purse is fat and bursting at the seams
Bbmaj7 A
Its a waste of time if you know what they mean
Bbmaj7 A
Too many hands in too many pockets
Dm F
Not enough hands on hearts
Bbmaj7 Am
Too many ready to call it a day
Dm
Before the day starts
So you thought you'd like to see them healed
Got Blue Peter to stage an appeal
For the poor for the poor

| Agree totally ShineYourDiamomd- a song highlighting the mask 'charity' work puts over the task of tackling the real inequalities of the world. Not a subject many of todays 'indie' bands tackle mind 1 | |

| These lines capture what the Housemartins were all about. More than anything else, it's a wake-up call to a complacent, comfortable society. Anyone agree? | |
