Lyrics
MARGATE
Shops boarded up where we used to buy ice creams
Hotels are all closed because the tourists have gone
Tramps in the park where we used to dream our dreams
I don?t know why. Where it all gone?
The beaches are dirty ?cause the sees so polluted
Syringes on the shore where we used to find shells
Roads all jammed up with cars by the thousands
Why didnt we here the warning bells
Must carry on and be strong, I must carry on and be strong
Must carry on and be strong, I must carry on and be strong
Kids in the schools are so angry and restless
The teachers look down on them with hate in there eyes
The dealers are waiting for the school bell to ring now
Parents unaware of their children?s demise
Must carry on and be strong, I must carry on and be strong
Must carry on and be strong, I must carry on and be strong
