The standards in Britain are slipping away,
We are sliding so fast into moral decay.
The things we once stood for have all gone for good
With ungodliness sweeping o’er like a flood.

The lessons our children were once taught with pride,
Have all disappeared down the slippery slide.
The strong family units, no longer are norm,
Society’s base swept away in the storm.

Watch the words that you speak and what you declare,
With political correctness, some thoughts you can’t share.
We cannot say that, we cannot say this,
The free speech we enjoyed, is the thing that we miss.

A short time ago your home was your castle,
With doors left unlocked, it wasn’t a hassle;
Folks respected your home, there was nothing to fear,
Neighbours lived peacefully together, year after year.

So who is responsible for the county’s decline?
Well politicians I think should be first in the line;
The laws God gave us, have been totally forgotten,
And the new laws passed have made society rotten.

A cloud of God’s judgment hangs over this land,
For people are not living the way God had planned.
As standards are falling, our high standing won’t last
The greatness of Britain is a thing of the past.
