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

Haven't we a long way
From newly-weds in our flat?
We skimped and scraped every
For a payment on our semi-detached.
New for all the young hopefuls,
A garden suburb mortgage attached,
Oh, look at us now, sale all agreed, now it's time to exchange the
With the people who sold us a 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 built a utopia,
With on the outside, oh,
at them now, they've come a long way, they are affluent and bursting with pride.
Soon we'll be sitting inside million-pound semi-detached,
Detached, in our semi-detached.
Looking back at the 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 married and out of home,
we were strangers again, together alone.
Look at us now, are we like,
Sitting 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, immigration has us survive.
an englishman's home was his castle,
Now a freehold investment to buy, oh,
Look at us now, our debts are all paid, and the empire has struck back.
the proud owners of a one-million-pound semi-detached,
So in our million-pound semi-detached.
A new generation is buying and anew,
And learning by all mistakes the way people do.
Like all the young hopefuls buying the future from you,
We hope that one day we'll understand what you've been through.
at us now, what are we like,
Sitting alone, in our semi-detached?
Look at us now, are we like,
Sitting alone, in our semi-detached?
