lyrics

(The Northerners! They’re coming 'cross the sea!)
For ages they’d fight back the snow,
Survive the winters, bloom and grow,
Became a people and one tribe upon the Northern Shore,
The Northerners were born. (Logos Rising!)

They wandered out into the world,
Saw centuries of countless wars
The diaspora thence unfurled,
As Northern knuckles knocked on southern doors.
The Evangelion of the East
Came Westward waging war upon the Beast
(Christendom is coming!)

With ancient times behind us now,
Britannia stands upon the prow,
They colonise the savage South,
And civilise the native man or ROUTE HIM OUT!
(The Black proved a great enemy,
The Zulu and Maori,
But no match for Her Majesty,
The Northerners are here!)
Though Union Jack is stationed high,
For Britain’s Mighty Empire the end is nigh.

Were you born at the turn of the Century?
Did you know of the violence to come?
Did you dream of dying young with a pair of infant sons, and a wife? No more life, not for you! Which way North Man?
Can you send me back home?
Where is my home?

We need to talk about today,
For things have changed in every way
The Northerners have broken down
Minorities in their own towns
(The refugees are coming,
they’re coming across the sea)

They taught the Northern man to hate
His Northern blood and Northern ways
But sorry wasn’t good enough,
For reparations they want blood!

The Northerners are homeless!
The Northerners are broken!
Go home Northern Man!
Where’s a place that I can call my home?
Can you show me how to get back home?
Which way North Man?
Have you seen my home?
