Long Way to Paradise(Live at Brixton Academy, 10/27/1991) - Stiff Little Fingers

When you're young you stand your ground

And nothing seem to get you down at all

Then you grow to realise

That everything ain't black and white it's brown

On and on your life drags on and every day's the same

It's a long way to paradise from here

It's a long way to paradise from here

Every week you stand in line

You queue to put your name upon a form

And every week they have devised

Another way of making you feel small

On and on your life grinds on

And you're not living at all

It's a long way to paradise from here

It's a long way to paradise from here

You think you're tough You think you're smart

But they know how to break your heart

They'll chew you up and spit you

Out and make you start again

Ah

Just it's a long way to paradise from here

It's a long way to paradise from here

It's a long way to paradise from here

It's a long way to paradise from here
