New Model Army é uma banda cultuada na Inglaterra, e é considerado um dos melhores grupos que o pós-punk inglês já produziu. Combinando a força do punk rock com letras politizadas, a exemplo do que o U2 e o The Alarm faziam, e o folk rock de protesto de Billy Bragg, o New Model Army soava como poucas bandas surgidas na mesma época e no mesmo estilo. O som era aguerrido e preciso, mas aos poucos foi esmorecendo, sem perder a qualidade, dando lugar para violões
Quatro anos de trabalho duro!Neste mês de maio fizemos quatro anos no ar. Continuamos trabalhando na divulgação deste maravilhoso instrumento, obrigado por participar da nossa história!
D She stares at the screen At the little words of green AmGD Tries to remember what to do next
D There's a trace of frustration That crosses her face AmGD Searching for the keys she should press
F And I would help her D If I only know how CF But these things are a mystery to me too
DG And it seems that the corporate AmG Eyes they are watching DG She fears for her job AmG And the moments are passing DG I stare at her nametag AmG And think to myself DC Both you and I, we never asked D For any of this
Chord pattern is the same for the rest of the song
So let's take a walk Up past the chemical works Where the sky turns green at night
And we'll talk about Bout getting away from here Some difference kind of life
But even in the freshest mountain air While the jet fighters practice overhead And they're drilling these hills For uranium deposits And they'll bury the waste For our children to inherit And though this is all done For our own benefit, I swear We never asked for any of this
Well this golden age of communication Means everyone talks at the same time And liberty just means Some freedom to exploit Any weakness that you can find Well turn off the TV just for a while Let us whisper to each other instead
And we'll hope that the corporate ears Do not listen Unless we find ourselves committing Some kind of treason And filed in the tapes Without rhyme, without reason While they tell us that it's all For our own protection, I swear We never asked for any of this...
