did you understand? - max boyce lyrics
i remember the time
of the collier and the candle
of a long, bitter fight that darkened the land
and i asked you the question but you wouldn’t answer
when i asked you the question, did you understand?
collier laddie, collier boy
i saw mills and machines
all lying there, idle
a million or more unemployed in the land
and i asked them the question but they wouldn’t answer
when i asked them thе question, did they understand?
colliеr laddie, collier boy
then i saw the ones sit
in the seats of decision
they sat and they judged the miners demand
and they all heard the case of the lowly*paid miner
and though they decided, did they understand?
collier laddie, collier boy
then i saw an old miner
whose body lies broken
claimed by the dust, much finer than sand
and i’ll ask him the question, though now he can’t answer
i’ll ask him the qestion, he’ll understand
