The Way We Were

The way we used to be A once proud and decent land, A country filled with greenery Living safely and an elderly helping hand, Education in a once better structure Transport,now a overcrowded tangled mess, Dishonesty,we see with money and banking And now we see rich richer poor earning less, The country is guided by everyone else The direction we see ahead maybe wrong, The charm of a british village is fading fast Asking are we in control of what is going on, An industrial country with a heart beat A self sufficient system once with pride, Yes britain as we once loved and knew And now with hidden dangers that coincide.
