Luyện nghe bài hát The Million - Pound - Semi - Detached

Haven't we a long way
From in our bed-sitter flat?
We skimped and scraped every
For a down on our semi-detached.
New for all the young hopefuls,
A garden suburb with attached,
Oh, at us now, sale all agreed, now it's time to exchange the contracts
With the people who us a million-pound semi.

Straight out of service,
Demob suits and back and sides,
And saw the bomb sites turned shelters,
their families lived all of their lives.
Then the nation them a utopia,
With on the outside, oh,
Look at them now, they've come a long way, they are affluent and with pride.
Soon we'll be inside that million-pound semi-detached,
Detached, in our semi-detached.
back at the past of this million-pound semi.

Two up two down, a garden, that was the dream,
Two kids, a cat and a dog, was the scheme.
Then the kids both grew up and got and moved out of home,
Then we were again, together alone.
Look at us now, are we like,
alone in our million-pound semi-detached?

They're all taking retirement, the sum total of all of their lives.
Now the country is fat with inflation, has helped us survive.
Once an englishman's was his castle,
Now it's a investment to buy, oh,
Look at us now, our debts are all paid, and the empire has really back.
We're the proud of a one-million-pound semi-detached,
So in our million-pound semi-detached.
A new is buying and starting anew,
And by all their mistakes the way people do.
Like all the young we're buying the future from you,
We hope one day we'll understand what you've both been through.
at us now, what are we like,
Sitting alone, in our semi-detached?
Look at us now, are we like,
alone, in our million-pound semi-detached?
