about

1979 is a howl of fury about generations of politicians who “sow poison instead of seeds” and “rip the heart from the state and the life from the towns”.

lyrics

They promised harmony
Took the coal and the ships and the steel and our self-esteem
Sowed poison instead of seeds
Said there's no such thing as society
One nine seven nine (hear it echo every day)
One nine seven nine

They said, hey you! You'll be okay!
Just don't be poor, don't be sick, don't be brown, don't be trans or gay
We're gonna bring the good times back!
I'm all right Jack wave your union flag
One nine seven nine (hear it echo every day)
One nine seven nine

Run it down
Sell the sky and the ground
Cut the heart from the state and the life from the towns
Run it down
Sell the sky and the ground
Cut the heart from the state and the life from the towns
One nine seven nine (hear it echo every day)
One nine seven nine
