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 penny
For a payment on our semi-detached.
New towns for all the hopefuls,
A garden with 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 short and sides,
And saw the bomb turned air-raid shelters,
Where families lived all of their lives.
the nation built them a utopia,
With on the outside, oh,
Look at them now, they've come a 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 past of million-pound semi.

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

They're all early retirement, the sum total of all of their lives.
Now the country is fat with inflation, has helped us survive.
an englishman's home was his castle,
Now it's a freehold to buy, oh,
Look at us now, our debts are all paid, and the empire has struck back.
We're the proud owners of a semi-detached,
So in our million-pound semi-detached.
A new generation is buying and anew,
And by all their mistakes the way people do.
Like all the young hopefuls buying the future from you,
We hope that one day 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,
Sitting alone, in our semi-detached?
