Die Toten Hosen
Goodbye Garageland
There's no Garageland no more
Only memories spread across the floor
To the sound of the guns of Brixton
We were fighting complete control
We felt like we were prisoners
In our save European home
We had 48 hours at the weekends
To have a little riot of our own
The cities of the dead were burning bright
And Johnny came marching home
There's no Garageland no more
We're left with memories lying on the floor
(Did you believe what they said?)
Hear the sound of hate and war
Death or Glory we survived it all
(No more riot on the Westway.)
It seemed so good to be alive
And to dream of better times
You gave us hope and we had enough rope
We were ready for the fight
But rebellion turned to money
As soon as the sun went down
Up all night we were flying high
'til we got the wake-up call
There's no Garageland no more
We're left with memories lying on the floor
(Did you believe what they said?)
Hear the sound of hate and war
Death or Glory we survived it all
