(kirsty maccoll)      I thought of you when they closed down the school   And the hospital too   Did they think that you were better?    They were wrong   You had so many friends   They all left you in the end   'cause they couldn't stand the patter      And I'll see you baby when the clans rise again   Women and children united by a struggle   Going down   You've got to walk into the water   With your sister and your daughter   In this free world      If I wore your shades could I share your point of view?    Could I make you feel better?    Paint a picture, write a letter?    Well I know what you're saying   But I see the things you do   And it's much too dangerous   To get closer to you      And I'll see you baby when the clans rise again   Women and children united by the struggle   Going down   With a pocketful of plastic   Like a dollar on elastic   In this free world   (I wouldn't tell you if I didn't care)      And I'll see you baby when the clans rise again   Women and children united by the struggle   And the ghettoes are full of mercedes benz   And you'd never hurt a friend   Who wouldn't tell you      It's cold and it's going to get colder   You may not get much older   You're much too scared of living   And to die is a reliable exit   So you push it and you test it   With 'thunderbird' and 'rivin'      And I'll see you baby when the clans rise again   Women and children united in the struggle   In this free world baby   Got to take it got to grab it   Got to get it up and shag it   In this free world      Going down   You've got to get into the water   Like a lamb goes to the slaughter   In this free world baby   Going down   With a pocketful of plastic   Like a dollar on elastic   In this free world   (I wouldn't tell you if I didn't care)
