Ball and Chain Lyrics – XTC

Ball and Chain Lyrics by XTC

Save us from the ball and chain,
Save us from the ball and chain,
Save us from the ball and chain,
Oh yeah,

The diggers and the tower cranes,
The diggers and the tower cranes
Don’t want demolition,
Don’t want your compensation,

It’s not just bricks and mortar,
We are lambs to slaughter
Save us from the ball and chain,
Save us from the ball and chain,

Save us from the ball and chain,
Oh yeah,
The diggers and the tower cranes,
The diggers and the tower cranes

Must we live in fear,
From those who shed no tears?
Our one and only shelter,
Your games, your helter skelter

Motorways and office blocks,
They’re standing on the spot
Where stood a home,
Crushing on the memories of people,

Who have since turned to stone
(Ahh)
They’ve turned to stone,
(Ahh)

They’ve turned to stone
Save us from the ball and chain,
Save us from the ball and chain,
Save us from the ball and chain,

Oh yeah,
The diggers and the tower cranes,
The diggers and the tower cranes
