Your family can't help you
  They're standing in your way
  Tight restrictions, contradictions
  More rules every day
  Hold you down, they hold you down
  You've got to get away
  London's calling, no more stalling
  Sleeping in your own doorway
  
  Never stop to reason
  Never question why
  The word's out there and they don't care
  Still you're gonna try
  Hold you down, they hold you down
  They'd never let you go
  And now you've been, at last you've seen
  And now I think you know
  That you've been...
  
  [Chorus:]
  Running down the road to kingdom come
  (Wouldn't believe me)
  Never gave a thought
  To all the people
  That you're running from
  Running down the road to kingdom come
  (Who'd've believed it)
  And all the time you only want a home
  
  Your countrymen are peasants
  You hate to have them near
  You just can't seem to realise
  You've got nothing to fear
  Hold them down, you'll hold them down
  You'll keep them in their place
  It's hard to find a land so blind
  It turns on its own race
  And you're still...
  
  [Chorus]
  
  I wish to god
  That someone here could help you
  I wish someone could help you sort your fate
  But you must do all the things you feel you have to
  And when we realise it's too damn late
  
  This world is too damn idle
  It has to pay its way
  Cut down the trees and clear the seas
  Let's live for today
  Hold it down, we'll hold it down
  That preservation noise
  Cause after all it won't be long
  We'll hear nothing at all
  And we're all.....
  
  [Chorus repeat]
