1.) Well we won our revolution, and we cleared some space, / but in 1812 they were back in our face, / We had to keep fighting: / don't these guys ever learn? /A hundred-fifty years later they were at it again, / And they launched an attack that we couldn't defend, / the Brits are chargin', look out, here they come!
CHORUS.) Well the Beatles sang fast, and Gerry sang slow, / Four by four over the radio, / Rockin and rollin, they were stealing our girls. / They had the Searchers, and the Hollies, and the Dave Clark Five, / Billy J., the Animals, and my oh my,/ back in '64, England took over the world.
2.) To get a little money, I would do my chores, / then I'd head on down to the record store, / I had to get the latest: "When You Walk in the Room"! / Pretty soon I had to have my own guitar, / I bought a set of high boots, and I grew my hair, / Oh Lord, why wasn't I born over there?
CHORUS.) as above.
TRIBUTE.) "Ferry Cross the Mersey" sounds so pretty, / "She Loves You", yeah, and "Do Wah Diddy", / "Little Children", and how about "Needles And Pins". / "Time Is On My Side", "Please Please Me", oh and "Bits and Pieces", "Glad All Over",/ 1964: England took over the world.
(Instrumental interlude.)
3.) Over thirty years later, I'm a prisoner still, / I can't get enough of that rockin' thrill. / I love that sound, and I, / Guess I always will.
CHORUS & TRIBUTE as above.
