Nothing could be finer than to be a striking miner
back in 84
From John O'Groats to Dover, a man with a combover
oversaw the war
Arthur Scargill - king of the hill
Man of the people
Arthur Scargill
Thatcher and Macgregor were the enemy together
on the other side
They plotted and they schemed
To kill the mining industry
And sure enough it died
At that time you had to say that's mine
Or share
Nothing's changed or everything has
Who cares?
But let us not hark back to darker days
The scars and scabs have healed now
Haven't they?
The gap between the rich and poor
Is wider than it was before the miners strike
Someone's let the tyres down
And someone made them pop
On Norman Tebbitt's bike
